Abstract
This thesis is an investigation of the terms disability, inclusion-exclusion dichotomy, ableism, disability/ableist microaggressions. It also studies the general perception of persons with disabilities, highlighting the perception of persons with disabilities in Croatia. Even though the focus is on the Croatian context, it includes the global context. The aim of the thesis is to explore how these terms affect the general perception of persons with disabilities, and to consider the level of awareness of Croatian population regarding them. The thesis itself is divided into two parts. The first, theoretical, part describes in detail the notions of disability, inclusion-exclusion dichotomy, ableism, disability/ableist microaggressions. The second part is based on research which, through the use of in-depth interviews, attempts to see to the extent to which we are, as a society, aware of the aforementioned notions when it comes to disability in general and the population of persons with disabilities. The main argument of the thesis is that the notion of disability should be viewed as a social construct that occurs as a result of complex mutual relations between persons with disabilities and able-bodied persons. These interviews support the thesis about the many different ways disability can be defined, and also show that microaggressions and ableism are largely present in Croatian society. This serves to create a vicious circle whereby the current perception of persons with disabilities is still not observed in a positive light.
Abstract (croatian)
Rad se temelji na problematizaciji i istraživanju pojmova invaliditet, dihotomija inkluzija-ekskluzija, diskriminacija na temelju sposobnosti [eng. ableism], mikroagresija na temelju invaliditeta/sposobnosti. U radu se također proučava opća percepcija osoba s invaliditetom, s naglaskom na percepciju osoba s invaliditetom u Hrvatskoj. Iako je fokus na hrvatskom kontekstu, spominje se i pogled na globalni kontekst. Cilj rada je ispitati kako prethodno navedeni pojmovi utječu na opću percepciju osoba s invaliditetom te pokušati uvidjeti razinu svijesti hrvatskog stanovništva o gore navedenim pojmovima. Sam rad podijeljen je u dva dijela. Prvi, teorijski dio, detaljno opisuje pojmove invaliditeta, dihotomiju inkluzija-ekskluzija, diskriminacija na temelju sposobnosti, mikroagresija na temelju invaliditeta/sposobnosti, dok se drugi dio temelji na istraživanju koji ima za cilj, koristeći se metodom nestandardiziranog dubinskog intevjua, utvrditi u kojoj smo mjeri kao društvo svjesni spomenutih pojmova kada je u pitanju invaliditet općenito i populacija osoba s invaliditetom. Glavni argument rada je ponuditi mogućnost definiranja pojma invaliditeta kao društvenog konstrukta koji nastaje kao posljedica složenih međusobnih odnosa između osoba s invaliditetom i osoba bez invaliditeta. Rezultati istraživanja podržavaju početnu premisu o mogućnostima definiranja invaliditeta na opisani način, a također pokazuju da su mikroagresije i diskriminacija na temelju sposobnosti u velikoj mjeri prisutni u hrvatskom društvu, čineći začarani krug na kojem se temelji sadašnja percepcija. osoba s invaliditetom koja se, u većoj mjeri, još uvijek ne smatra pozitivnom.
