Abstract

In this essay, I take up the question as to whether individuals with disabilities deserve the same respect as those who are more albe to exercise their abilities and capacities. I argue that for Paul Ricoeur and Martha Nussbaum, the issue of mental disability serves as a kind of litmus test for their respective philosophical stances.
