MARTIN CONTINO, Alejandro. Current biopolitical on disability: inclusion strategy. liber. [online]. 2013, vol.19, n.2, pp.235-241. ISSN 1729-4827.

This paper takes a limited tour of what currently means inclusion strategy in relation to the problem of the disability, taking as a reference the public policy held in the city of Rosario, Argentina. On this basis questions were raised in relation to biopolitics and governmentality. This tour was finally oriented to interrogate the same status of disability, a complex and diffuse problematic in itself, which outlined some basic coordinates to propose to think of it in terms of what M. Foucault called «device»; that is, as a complex and heterogeneous political construction based on the normal-pathological dichotomy, which naturalizes the notion of deficit, it presents it as a personal tragedy that works at the same time promoting the sustainability of the economic policy of neo-liberalism.

Keywords : Disability; inclusion; biopolitics; governmentality.
