It is estimated that 50 -60 % of all adults with learning disabilities in Germany cohabitate with their relatives, mainly with their parents. Regional surveys confirm cohabitation often continues into the fifth decade of the disabled person's lifespan (vgl. Lindmeier et al. 2018). With the aging of the family members, the vulnerability of the family life situation increases. Changes are commonly initiated by the parents' decreasing health, directly affecting the parents ability of care intensity . Until now, science and practice have not developed suitable offers of support. In general, older families are subject to a problem-focused professional discourse and experience themselves confronted with normative regulations. While in the sociological discourse assumptions of normality regarding a family-biography are discussed critically, the work with families with disabled children still assumes a standardized family life cycle as a view on the support structure underlines. Offers of support for older families underestimate the biographical value of their life design and the desire of having this acknowledged, respected and noticed while exploring future perspectives. The presented example of biographical research explores the biographical meanings of living together with an adult disabled child from a parental perspective. The study follows the intention to generate a better understanding and above all appreciation for familiar realities, to support them developing perspectives for their future and to contribute to a new attitude towards older families. In this context family isn't defined as a stable institution (vgl. Fuhs 2002, 23) but as a making in the sense of doing family (vgl. Jurczyk/Lange & Thiessen 2014). In order to portray the diversity of family-life-stories, to reconstruct crisis and strategies of coping, to trace conceptions of 'being family' and to classify the social practice of living together, biographical research is chosen. This appears in the methodology as well as in the epistemological basis of this thesis. On the one hand, biographies are generated in a complex, dialectic interaction of individual acting and social structures. On the other hand, they structure individual acting in turn. Thus, living together can no longer be seen as a sole demonstration of individual action but is likewise socially contextualized. With this approach, the view for the diversity of families with disabled children is enhanced and the long term cohabitation is no longer interpretated as a demonstration of parental failure but as a manifestation of meaningful practice in which society participates at any time. To be able to comprehend the methodic procedure, this thesis starts with a detailed theoretical discussion of its main subjects that are "biography", "family", "older families", "residing/living circumstances" and "age/ageing". In a next step, conferring to the leading issue and the underlying conceptualization of biography, the chosen methods of research are explained. The narrative interview and the biographical case reconstruction according to Gabriele Rosenthal (2014) are eminently suitable to reflect the complex dialectic relation between social structure and individual behaviour inherent to biography. Thus, the thesis attempts to trace and to compare the social phenomenon of living together focusing on the genesis, the maintenance/perpetuation and the transformation, based on three detailed examples of biographies of older parents with disabled children. The presented results form the basis to derive consequences for a different approach to older families and ideas are discussed to adjust and/or reconstruct structures of support. The proposed approaches emphasize disabled people's right to a self-determined life, while they also respect the desire of many families to biographically continue their unique way of 'doing family', hence encouraging a "person and family"-centered planning process to be the future starting point. hence encouraging a "person and family"-centered planning process to be the future starting point.

Disability Studies and Spanish Culture is the first book to apply the tenets of Disability Studies to the Spanish context. In particular, this work is an important corrective to existing cultural studies of disability in Spain that tend to largely ignore intellectual disabilities. Taking on the representation of Down syndrome, autism, alexia/agnosia as well as childhood disability, its chapters combine close readings of a number of Spanish cultural products (films, novels, the comic/graphic novel and the public exhibition) with a broader socio-cultural take on the state of disability in Spain. Fraser is just as comfortable with the work of disability theorists who advocate a social model of disability (such as Lennard J. Davis, Licia Carlson, Eva Feder Kittay, David T. Mitchell, Sharon L. Snyder and more) as he is with the analysis of film and literature in the Spanish context. While researchers and students of cinema will be particularly interested in the book's detailed analyses of the formal aspects of the films, comics, and novels discussed, readers from backgrounds in history, political science and sociology will all be able to appreciate discussions of contemporary legislation, advocacy groups, cultural perceptions, models of social integration and more. The book is directed, also, toward those readers more familiar with the growing field of Disability Studies itself-making the argument that the specific case of Spanish culture and society speaks to shifts in the social attitudes and theoretical understandings of disability more broadly considered.

Welche Alltagspraxen führen dazu, dass sich behinderte Identitäten ausbilden? Durch die Dokumentation der 16 Lebensgeschichten und -entwürfe von Menschen mit ›geistiger Behinderung‹ geht Hendrik Trescher der Frage nach, wie diese ihren Alltag erfahren. Er legt dar, wie diese Menschen in ihrem Lebenslauf immer wieder an Diskursteilhabebarrieren stoßen und so letztlich behindert werden. Wie komplex und gleichsam radikal wirkmächtig solche Barrieren sein können, zeigt er u.a. durch Aufdecken der Zusammenhänge zwischen Behinderung und der Funktionslogik von Hilfestrukturen, die - häufig auch in ihrer Ausprägung als pädagogische Protektorate - letztlich selbst behindernd wirken. »Eine äußerst gelungene Arbeit, die mit der machtkritischen Betrachtung der Praktiken des Bereichs Wohnen in der Behindertenhilfe sehr anschaulich und empirisch fundiert herausarbeitet, wie ›geistige Behinderung‹ institutionell (re-)produziert wird.« Tobias Buchner, Schweizerische Zeitschrift für Bildungswissenschaften, 40/2 (2018) »Eine überaus anregende, begrifflich klar justierte und vielfältige Fallstudie.« Manfred Jödecke, www.socialnet.de, 18.09.2017 Besprochen in: Schweizerische Zeitschrift für Heilpädagogik, 7-8 (2017)

Les institutions médico-sociales ou socio-éducatives ont pour mission l'accompagnement et le développement de l'autonomie et du bien-être de leurs résidants. Comment expliquer dès lors les diverses formes d'abus – négligences, violences psychologiques, morales ou physiques – se produisant parfois dans certains établissements ? Face à ce paradoxe, Manon Masse et Geneviève Petitpierre abordent le thème de la prévention de la maltraitance perpétrée envers des adultes présentant une déficience intellectuelle et vivant ou travaillant en institution. L'ouvrage s'articule autour d'une méthodologie originale qui consiste en une recherche-action réunissant trois types d'acteurs : des personnes avec une déficience intellectuelle, des parents concernés et des professionnels du domaine socio-éducatif. Dans un premier temps, la démarche vise à identifier les représentations de la maltraitance en milieu institutionnel du point de vue des acteurs en présence. Ensuite, dans une perspective multifactorielle et en s'appuyant sur la littérature existante, les auteures distinguent les facteurs augmentant ou diminuant le risque de survenue ou d'exposition à la maltraitance. Enfin, toujours en sollicitant les participants, des pistes d'actions concrètes destinées à prévenir l'apparition de situations abusives sont esquissées.
