Nowadays, social changes include the perception not only of disability itself, but also of a family with a disabled member. These changes concern the organisation of support for the family, which functions in the entire social ecosystem, including the closest social groups, e.g., the neighbourhood. Although this neighbourhood, which is also subject to changes, can become an invaluable source of support, unfortunately, it may also become an environment that contributes to the social exclusion of a family. In this paper, the author presents selected aspects of the co-existence of people with disabilities and their families with their neighbours. The paper used research on opinions about being the neighbour of a family with a disabled person, which included declarations of help or support really offered. The author asserts that a family with a disabled person can experience both positive and negative attitudes and behaviours from neighbours.

The article addresses the issue of success in the context of people with disabilities. Attention was paid to the specific nature of the concept; starting with the definition, attempts were made to point out that success, being a certain “objective” construct, has a definitely individual character and should be considered as such. This individual dimension designates not only the interpretative framework determining its achievement, but also draws attention to the fact that success may have many faces. There is a need for achievement in every person, a completed challenge gives a sense of happiness, and this, according to many, is the real measure of success.

Human life is abundant in events which have impact on people’s life paths, which in turn influence their behavioural patterns shaping them to deviate from the accepted standards. Certainly, the experience of disability is an event which superimposes numerous and wide-ranging biopsychosocial consequences for those affected by it. It is a difficult situation that limits one’s potential to satisfy one’s needs and to meet the expectations of the public. Young people, who desperately look for ways to cope with such a situation, often resort to risky behaviours (e.g.smoking, drinking alcohol, early sexual initiation, aggression) and frequently find themselves in dire straits. However, experience demonstrates that such measures not only fail to solve problems, but intensify them, often leading to social maladjustment, which then may end up in social exclusion. Therefore, risky behaviour, particularly in adolescents with disabilities, appears to be a serious problem thatrequires diagnosis and intervention. The aim of this discussion is to demonstrate risky behaviour in young people with disabilities and to look at it through the prism of their conditioning rooted in their attempts (usually unsuccessful) to cope with a difficult life situation maimed by disability.

The aim of my paper is to analyse the cognitive and ethical aspects of selected literary and film depictions of disabilities. Based on theoretical and methodological assumptions of sociology of literature and critical discourse analysis, I set out to demonstrate how selected literary and film works depict situations and problems related to social inclusion of people with disabilities. I focus on two questions: 1) How do artistic creations build able people’s knowledge of the social situation and position of people with disabilities? 2) What ethical problems can such depictions involve?

Issues of normalisation, autonomy and self-determination of people with intellectual disabilities in special education have already taken their fixed place. The consequence of this continuing discourse is the personal nature of disability, international, timeless declarations and modifications of already established rights. Recently, the emancipatory trend is gaining in importance in this discourse. It remains in close correlation with the primary objective of educating people with intellectual disabilities, which is comprehensive preparation for life. It is a form of conscious self-reliance, self-knowledge and the capacity to take autonomous action. One of the areas of development of self-reliance is work. The resulting interpersonal and intrapersonal experiences can become the path to emancipation. Sometimes one that goes beyond the standards of rehabilitation.

Irena Ramik-Mażewska, Employer’s Assistant – new value in employing persons with disabilities. Interdisciplinary Contexts of Special Pedagogy, no. 27, Poznań 2019. Pp. 417–432. Adam Mickiewicz University Press. ISSN 2300-391X. e-ISSN 2658-283X. DOI: https://doi.org/10.14746/ikps.2019.27.20 The purpose of this article is to present the initiative of the West Pomeranian Voivodeship in Poland, which is aimed at increasing the professional activity of persons with disabilities. The developed and tested model of the employer’s assistant is, in the special pedagogy, a new quality directed towards the labour market. The Employer’s Assistant does not deal, in essence, only with a person with a disability, but mainly with the environment of employers to hire persons that suffer from disabilities. In the article, I refer to the assistant of the disabled person as a result of the biopsychosocial model of disability, which creates a great opening to the discussion on various models of assistance. I would like to point out the specific consequences of the lack of employment among people with disabilities. I present the premises of the employer’s assistant model and the evaluation of its effectiveness, the main consequence of which is the ability to build social capital of persons with disabilities. By cooperating with many environments, the employer’s assistant develops specific social behavioural patterns and becomes a foundation of social activity of persons with disabilities.

People with disabilities, apart from health problems, usually face social, occupational and economic constraints. To improve their lives, institutions are established in order to perform rehabilitation, support activities and provide financial support, as well as non-institutional activities, mainly within self-help groups. The purpose of the article is to show what forms of disability assistance are available and to what extent they provide normal lives for people with disabilities. What is more, this paper analyses expenditures on disabled people and assesses whether these resources are sufficient to provide the disabled people with help they need. The territorial scope of the article includes the Municipal Social Assistance Centre located in Jarosław, and the chronological range covers 2013-2015 period. The main research method used for the needs and realisation of the accepted research objectives was the analysis of the content of the documents and the descriptive method.

The cyborgization of sport has occupied a noticeable role in the fields of sport and medicine in recent years due to the fact that this issue calls into question the very foundations of contemporary sport. As a result, it gives rise to doubt about whether cyborg athletes should be able to take part in different athletic competitions, and if they are allowed, under what circumstances. After examining the impact of enhancing implants and prosthesis in sport, I have considered which objections can be raised to this particular sort of enhancement. In this regard, I think that several aspects have to be taken into account: 1. The possibility of producing severe harm to the athletes; 2. The effect it has on equality among athletes when the improvement grants an obvious advantage; 3. The dehumanization of sport, and 4. The aesthetic problem My position has been to temper the “moral panic” that some may feel given the progressive (and future) use of enhancing implants and prosthesis as used by (cyborg)athletes.

The way people with disabilities function in society - people with higher requirements for readaptation - follow the times, but does it keep up with them? Otherness ceases to be something strange, it slowly becomes normal, but not for everyone. Support for disabled people by the state and social favor eliminate many barriers, and most importantly - the mental border, but is it up to the expectations? We constantly strive for modernity and progress, to change reality, and we cannot identify ourselves with people of special concern, as if the topic of disability did not concern modernity and sustainable human development. In the article, the author tries to come closer to the answers to two questions related to disability. Are people with disabilities in Poland "other" people and do these people find the expected support in the law and how does the law treat such people - inevitably, severely, or perhaps indulgently? The author's assumption is, first of all, to indicate the essence and importance of an important issue, and to leave room for own research.

Ever greater numbers of people with disabilities feel the need to spend time actively, travel or just leave the house. The inner need alone is not, of course, the only condition for the occurrence of tourist activity. One prerequisite is associated with access to information, and the other is the elimination of barriers at an architectural or social level. Tourism is one of the most pleasant and diverse forms of rehabilitation, which fulfils many functions in the life of a disabled person with a medical, biological, social or stimulating character. When engaging in tourism, people with disabilities take up the challenge of overcoming their own limitations on both physical and mental levels. The aim of the article is to identify the functions of tourist activity in the lives of people with disabilities.

The commented judgment concerned the disclosure of disability symbol on the disability certificate. The complainant, both in the constitutional complaint and during the proceedings, claimed the symbol 02-P (mental illnesses) was stigmatising. Although the Constitutional Tribunal decided on non-constitutionality of the challenged provisions, the commented judgment caused the further stigmatisation of persons with mental illnesses. Organs still placed other symbols on the disability certificate, as they did not lose competences in this scope, and all symbols (specified in the challenged regulation) maintained their force, with the exception of 02-P. In practice, every certificate included the cause of disability. In case of persons like the complainant, the information on the cause of disability had a negative character, as the lack of a symbol was also an information on the state of health. The judgment shall therefore be evaluated negatively.

In Poland, the right to education is guaranteed by the Constitution of the Republic of Poland (Article 70). People with disabilities have full access to the free universal education system. The Act of Educational Law published on the 14th of December 2016 (Journal of Laws 2017, Item 59, Article 1, Point 6 & 7) guarantees free and unlimited access to all types of education to students with special educational needs. This is done in accordance with their cognitive, social, and emotional development, educational needs, and predisposition. They are also granted the right to individualized care plans, approaches, and curricula. Students with special educational needs are offered unlimited access to services specializing in compensation, enhancement, and improvement of their wellbeing. The complex and multifaceted approach that is provided for students with disabilities in education is not only to support their comprehensive development but also to develop skills that will allow them to: successfully communicate (verbally and nonverbally), make their own choices, be creative, solve problems, be able to assess the impact of their actions on their lives and their environment, cope in various situations, build their own system of values and beliefs, and be able to work well with others. Support for students with special educational needs should be individually tailored depending on students' age, type and severity of disability, type of service (educational, rehabilitation, occupational) and also on students' interests, talents, and preferences.

The aim of the article is to identify the reasons for low employment rates of people with disabilities in Poland, and to examine whether employers, disabled employees and other staff want to talk about the rational use of the rights of a disabled employee and what views, opinions or other circumstances can make it difficult. Four hypotheses were formulated in the work, which were verified on the basis of surveys and interviews conducted in the period from March to September 2017 in the Voivodship of Silesia. The considerations were rounded off with conclusions and comments.

The article is devoted to the issue of disability, embedded in the Polish - post-socialist - reality. The author focused on presenting both the political situation in the country and the media discourse around disabled people and their keepers. The background of the ongoing public discussion on people with disabilities is the topic of abortion, also widely present in the Polish media. The analysis of the press discourse (Gazeta Wyborcza) carried out for the purposes of this article not only provides a bitter summary of the situation of this neglected social group, but is also an opportunity to show the real life problems faced by the weakest representatives of Polish society every day life.

Parents, teachers and students often wonder whether inclusive education brings benefits and enriches students with and without disabilities, or if it adversely affects one of the groups. Inclusive education has many benefits such as improving the quality of education for all students, overcoming social exclusion and combating discrimination. Inclusive education enables development for all students. There are benefits for students with disabilities such as the possibility of personal, intellectual and, above all, social development. Importantly, a student with a disability has a chance to develop in a natural environment. Students without disabilities can also experience the benefits of inclusive education. They have a chance to get used to difference, learn tolerance and sensitivity to the needs of others. Inclusive education can therefore significantly affect the students’ value system and bring positive changes in the attitudes of students with and without disabilities.

The following article is the third publication presenting the results of a study concerning the professional activity of handicapped people (see: „Nauka” 1/2008 and „Nauka” 2/2008). The purpose of this part of the research was to determine whether there is a relationship between professional status, life satisfaction, and various personal competencies among handicapped people. Apart from this, we also wanted to establish what conditions personal competencies by focusing on social-demographic factors and disability characteristics. The tested competencies were isolated from the administered questionnaire using a factor analysis. Seven factors were found: locus of control, level of aspiration, potential for development, effort invested in development, impulsiveness, stamina, and mood. Analysis of the results leads to the following conclusions: (1) personal competencies are significantly related to professional activity for handicapped people, as is level of life satisfaction, (2) personal competencies are related to external factors shaping the development of handicapped people, such as: dwelling, gender, level of disability, and type of disability.

The article is devoted to the problems of disability seen through the prism of needs, both those referred to as special (special educational, developmental, professional needs), as well as those universal. The term (special) needs were analyzed, in particular the problem of losing its basic, psychological significance in the special pedagogy of recent years, as well as its theoretical and practical explorations in relation to nursing-compensating, educational and therapeutic activities. Text points attention to the need to update analyzes consistent with the idea of inclusion, in relation to the issue of the needs of people with disabilities, as a motivating factor and compensation area.
