Abstract

The essays present a complex and multifaceted picture, in which the right to independent living—while already a reality—assumes the role of a political project aimed at social, legal, and urban transformation. It has the power to drive meaningful change, making it legally imperative to create contexts that fully uphold equality, including in relation to free and self-determined living, and that finally allow all individuals to exercise their liberty.
