THE EVOLUTION OF ATTITUDE TOWARDS THE PEOPLE WITH PSYCO-PHYSICAL DISABILITIES

Abstract

The latest scientific studies proved, that 18 % of men and women with disorders of musculoskeletal system and 12 % of blind believe that the main problems for disabled people is not so variety of restrictions (means of communication or movement, etc.), as much as lack of social participation, shortcomings of legal and technical nature, what in general reinforce the social inequality between people. The problem of relationship between society and individuals with disabilities has always existed. It remains highly relevant today. A retrospective approach to the study of the past experience allows us to see current issues in the process of their formation, accumulation, development, transformation and consider them according to the specific circumstances of the historical period. The purpose of the study to explore the evolutionary path of relations between society and individuals with psycho-physical disabilities Material and methods. According to the purpose we set tasks to study and analyze data from scientific sources concerning the development of relations between society and individuals with mental and physical disabilities in the historical and modern aspect. And the possibility of use of physical education in solving these problems. The purpose and tasks were implemented by methods of analysis and sharing of scientific and methodological literature and practical experience. Results. The origins of negative attitude to disability is rooted in society itself and «disability» is a social phenomenon, not a medical problem of the person. Historical analysis helps to overcome subjectivity in management activities and to define pedagogical conditions of the implementation in practice of theoretical conclusions and recommendations. Ukraine because of its geographical position absorbed both Western and Eastern culture. Thus, in the world historically formed several approaches to the formation of a model of relations between society and people with disabilities: cultural, medical, social. Conclusions. History allows us to see current issues in the process of their formation, accumulation, development, transformation. Accumulation of views (in the period of intensive development of pedagogy) about the formation of physical qualities of children with psycho-physical features has become a prerequisite for the later learning, special physical education and training for children with violations of psychophysical development in special branch of pedagogical knowledge, namely adaptive physical education.
