Sammendrag
What is the current relationship between the social and medical definitions of

disability in Norway? The Norwegian Discrimination and Accessibility Act, which

entered into effect on 1 January 2009, frames its overarching goals in terms of

human rights and equal opportunity and studiously avoids the use of medicodiagnostic

language. Most of the specific provisions of the law are, however,

justified as means of compensation for inherent or pre-existing disadvantage due

to impairment. In order to be effective, they must engage with medical,

impairment-specific knowledge. Social and medical perspectives and explanatory

models that are often seen as conflicting or even mutually exclusive instead

become intertwined in the spaces of negotiation that are opened by the law. Thus,

elements of what has traditionally been termed the medical model become

integrated in a larger framework that is defined by the goals of the social model.
