Abstract
CRUZ VADILLO, Rodolfo. Should we move from special education to inclusive education? Perspectives and possibilities of advance. Alteridad [online]. 2018, vol.13, n.2, pp.251-261. ISSN 1390-8642. https://doi.org/10.17163/alt.v13n2.2018.08.
The present work is the result of an investigation that had as objective to analyze the beliefs about the inclusion of people with disabilities in the teaching of a disabled student. The purpose of this text is to problematize the idea that inclusive education is a discursive and representational space that has been given thanks to the transition or continuity of special education. The methodology is qualitative with a descriptive scope from an interpretative paradigm. A questionnaire was used with 13 open questions made to 61 teachers of compulsory education, all students of the master in Pedagogy of a Higher Education Institution in the city of Puebla. The results were given a speech type of analysis. The results indicate that although some discourses have shown an almost antagonistic division, for teachers mixing and complementing is necessary, that is, the knowledge of special education complements the principles of equality, equity and non-discrimination of the inclusive education. The reached conclusions show the need for complementarity between inclusive education and special education to advance in a human development project.
