In this paper, we unpack the body politic of the para-athlete-soldier and its positioning within masculinizing, militarized, national, popular cultural discourses. Drawing on an integrated methodological approach that explored the media production, representation and consumption of the 2016 Paralympics, we focus on the inscription of a disabled masculinity onto the bodies of ex-military personnel that inculcate normative notions of heterosexuality and the neoliberal (‘inclusive’) national and ableist body politic. The data set indicate that the hyper- and hypo-visibility of Paralympians construct inclusive cultural collective imaginaries around disability inclusion and the ‘progressive’ state whilst at the same time structuring forms of disciplinary exclusion. We conclude that the gendered, technologized and commodified bodies [Pullen, E. & Silk, M. 2020. Gender, Technology and the Ablenational Paralympic Body Politic. Cultural Studies, 34(3):466–88] of National Paralympic bodies offers compelling insights into contemporary disability biopolitics where sport, militarization, gender and the neoliberal national body intersect.

残疾,男子气概,军国主义:残奥会和田径运动员的文化(再)生产

在本文中,我们将剖析准运动员的身体政治及其在男性化,军事化,民族,大众文化话语中的定位。借助探索2016年残奥会媒体生产,代表和消费的综合方法论方法,我们专注于将残疾男子气概铭刻在前军事人员的身体上,这些人灌输异性恋和新自由主义(``包容性'')的规范性观念)国家和有政治能力的团体。数据集表明,残奥会运动员的超视力和次视力围绕残疾人包容性和“进步”状态构建了包容性的文化集体想象,同时构成了学科排斥的形式。我们得出的结论是,性别,技术和商品化的机构[Pullen,E.&国家残奥会组织的《文化研究》,第34(3):466–88页)提供了有关体育,军事化,性别与新自由主义国家机构相交的当代残疾人生物政治的引人注目的见解。
