From oppression to recognition:
Abstrak
In this article we analyze disability as a form of oppression. The article begins with a trace the origins of key disability tightness with Barnes (1998), for whom the cultural oppression of the “people with impairments”3 can be traced back to the very birth of Western society to the ideal of “able-bodied”. In point of Oppression and Exclusion, World Disability Report (WHO & WB, 2011) was taken, these people “are forced to depend on others and are isolated from the general social, cultural and political opportunities” (p. 298). Continues with the conceptualiza- tion of oppression in Young, who states oppression as a plural concept with five categories: exploitation, marginalization, power- lessness, cultural imperialism and violence. Then in the social movements of the 60s and 70s shows a struggle to break the bonds that link them to situations of oppression and exclusion and subsequently the International Convention on the Human Rights of Persons with Disabilities (UN, 2006) was taken, ensuring that States Parties which have ratified, promote and protect the rights of PWDs, and by this means the end of the article with the quest for Social Justice, the key to recognition is proposed.
