Kombinirana socijalna politika prema osobama s invaliditetom - podrška socijalnom modelu invaliditeta ; Welfare Mix in Disability Policy - Support to Social Model of Disability

Abstract

U radu se razmatra koncept kombinirane socijalne politike, u kontekstu potencijala koje koncept otvara u području službi podrške za osobe s invaliditetom. Definirajući koncepte kombinirane socijalne politike te socijalnog modela invaliditeta, analizira se međusobna povezanost i slična vrijednosna utemeljenost oba koncepta. Primjena kombiniranog pristupa prema osobama s invaliditetom prema suvremenim načelima neodvojiva je od razvoja socijalnog kapitala lokalnih zajednica te primjena nije moguća bez uključivanja korisnika u procese odlučivanja i provođenja programa socijalnih usluga. Navode se dileme o budućnosti razvoja kombinirane socijalne politike te se kratko osvrće i na moguće trendove u daljnjem razvoju službi za osobe s invaliditetom. Potvrđuje se adekvatnost kombinirane socijalne politike kao prikladnog okvira za razvoj suvremenih službi podrške za osobe s invaliditetom. ; This paper considers the concept of welfare mix in the context of its potential in the field of services for people with disabilities. Through defining the concepts of welfare mix and social model of disability, the author analyses connections and similarities between these two concepts. Influences of welfare mix on operationalization of social model of disability are being analysed. Application of welfare mix towards people with disabilities is inseparable from the development of social capital of local communities. Also, the application of welfare mix in the sense of a social model of disability is unthinkable without models of including service users in the process of decision making about delivering programs of social services. Finally, there are certain dilemmas about the future development of welfare mix which are being reviewed in the context of disability groups. The author concludes by confirming welfare mix to be an adequate framework for developing modern services for people with disabilities.
