Abstract

Many alternative opinions about how best to respond educationally to the reality of human diversity in abilities are possible. Opinions and rhetoric now dominant seem to us inimical to a thriving, vibrant, effective special education. We see trends in concepts or ideas, policies, and publications that we believe could lead slowly but inevitably to special education’s diminishment and eventual demise. We describe what could become the “new normal” through the process of “creeping normalization” and suggest seven alternative propositions that we wish to see affirmed by professional associations and policy-making organizations.

蠕变常态：新常态下的特殊教育问题

关于如何在教育上最好地应对人类能力多样性的现实，有许多不同的观点是可能的。在我们看来，现在占主导地位的观点和言论似乎不利于繁荣、充满活力、有效的特殊教育。我们看到了概念或想法、政策和出版物的趋势，我们认为这些趋势可能会缓慢但不可避免地导致特殊教育的衰落和最终消亡。我们描述了通过“逐渐正常化”的过程可能成为“新常态”的情况，并提出了我们希望看到专业协会和决策组织确认的七个备选命题。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Disability Policy Studies addresses compelling, variable issues in ethics, policy, and law related to individuals with disabilities. A major focus is quantitative and qualitative policy research. Articles have implications in fields such as education, law, sociology, public health, family studies, medicine, social work, and public administration. Occasional special series discuss current problems or areas needing more in-depth research, for example, disability and aging, policy concerning families of children with disabilities, oppression and disability, school violence policies and interventions, and systems change in supporting individuals with disabilities.
