The article is published in English. I put the French version in HALSHS. In addition, this article is included in a thematic file of the ALTER review: "When the disability questions the birth". With the rapid development of techniques in the field of prenatal diagnosis and neonatal resuscitation over the last three decades, perinatal medicine has come to play an active part, although not its primary mission, in the social treatment of disability. This activity was developed entirely in the margins of the new concepts of disability, which, under the impetus of the movements of persons with disabilities and disability studies, were the subject of a broad international debate over the same period, in the form of classification work and new legislation and recommendations. This situation of waterproofing between two fields of disability intervention: perinatal medicine, on the one hand, and public policies and social action on the other, lead to practices being rooted in radically different approaches to disability. The author gives an overview of the state of play and practices of prenatal diagnosis in France and then attempts to analyse the reasons for the difficult reconciliation between these two fields of action by reverting to the socio-historical arrangements for their construction. Two avenues were raised: the delegation by the State to different actors in the two fields and the extension of 'therapeutic abortion' to foetal indications endorsed in the enclave of the Medical Institution. ; International audience Even if this is not its primary mission, with the rapid progress in techniques in the fields of prenatal diagnosis and neonatal resuscitation over the last three decades, perinatal medicine now plays an active role in the social treatment of disability. This activity was developed independently of new conceptions of disability which, through the impetus provided by disabled persons movements and disability studies, were at the same time the object of a broad international debate which led to ...

The humanity, at the time of the second millennium, is making a number of scourges. Natural disasters, epidemics, in particular AIDS and very recently Ebola, endless wars around the world, earthquakes, etc. are events that make people one of the media and daily lives. Countless consequences are the result of these scourges, which in every passage are terror, death and dessolation. While claims can be recorded, it is probably with sequelae which, sometimes, may take enough time, either to disappear or to stay until the death of the subject. Of course, these sequelae can be not only physical or biological, but also mental. This results in a physical, mental or other disability. All the more so, the dramatic rise of mental illnesses is of interest to curious people, most of which are psychosocial actors, and governments and international bodies are putting considerable resources to overcome pandemics and/or epidemics around the world. Unfortunately, one or more organisations seem to be interested in the consequences of the negative surprises we have in the world. ; Master ; The humanity, at the time of the second millennium, is making a number of scourges.

This article reported on a dialogue with Marcel Nuss, who had had a severe spinal amyotrophy since childhood, about the experience of the body. The first is to describe how an ordinary person feels his body, in particular through Mauritius Merleau-Ponty's agri-ennology, and then to confront certain assumptions with the experience of a person with disabilities. The body's own life or body refers here to a conscious experience of the body as a power of action within the meaning of Merleau-Ponty, as a body envelope within the meaning of D. Anzieu, and finally as an owner-eptive unit. We will wonder to what extent we can approach the experience of others through our common language and culture. Thus, can the person with a disability feel the proxy movement? Can it dream of this movement, imagine it? But above all, is this desirable for the Commission? We will not avoid the ethical dimension of such questioning, as well as the presentation of the difficulties encountered subjectively by the author during the investigation. ; International audience ; This article reported on a dialogue with Marcel Nuss, who had had a severe spinal amyotrophy since childhood, about the experience of the body.

In this article, the diagnosis of disability is analysed as a device in the crowd sense, that is to say, 'everything that has, in one way or another, the ability to capture, guide, determine, intercept, model, monitor and ensure the gestures, conduct, opinions and discourse of living beings' (Agamben, 2014) 1. In other words, I am talking about a certain social and political use of the norm which determines disability through the rationality of biological normativity and social normativity of techniques for standardising the body with disabilities, from diagnosis of disability to forms of care. I therefore put forward a hypothesis linked to the introduction of standardisation of educational discourses and practices linked not only to diagnosis, but also to the central, neoliberal Western educational systems, which place the subject of diagnosis in a paradoxical injunction: placed in a diagnosed disability standard, the subject is supposed to 'become normal' by means of an order for autonomy and responsibility, despite the disability norm which excludes the disabled from normal life in the education system for standardisation. It must then be stated that the logic at work is not only that of the mathematisation of life and the mathematisation of the risk of becoming normal, brought about by the neoliberal models of the merchandising of bodies which justify decisions on the protection or exclusion from the normal life of people with disabilities, which thus determine the practices of intervention on body and psychological debiles. ; International audience In this article, the diagnosis of disability is analyzed as a device in the Foucauldian sense, that is to say "all that has, in one way or another, the ability to capture, direct, determine , To intercept, to model, to control and to ensure the gestures, the conduct, the opinions and the discourses of the living beings "(Agamben, 2014).

In the labor market, inequalities of treatment are often experienced by minority populations. People with disabilities are not spared. The professional integration of people with disabilities is a major issue in developed countries. Despite numerous policies and incentives for hiring, the situation does not seem to be improving. The objective of this thesis is to analyze the situation of disabled people in the labor market by measuring the discrimination suffered by these people in their access to employment and by evaluating the public policies implemented in favor of their integration in order to be able to propose avenues for improvement. First, we measured discrimination due to two types of disability: motor disability and visual disability. We have highlighted relatively important differences between the person with a disability and the person without a disability. The disability has a negative impact on the job search and on the first step of the hiring process. Applicants with disabilities are less likely to be invited to a job interview, with relative differences of 13% to 17% depending on the type of disability. This discrimination is quite heterogeneous and depends on the characteristics of the institutions tested. We also analyzed the link between discrimination and the hiring incentive policy. The latter cancels out this negative effect in establishments subject to this incentive. Secondly, we evaluated the policy of the obligation to employ disabled workers (OETH) of the 2005 law on disability, which imposes a quota of 6% for establishments with 20 or more employees. This policy is only beneficial for people with disabilities who have administrative recognition of their disability status. They are more likely to be employed after the 2005 law ; Sur le marché du travail, des inégalités de traitement sont souvent subies par des catégories de populations minoritaires. Les personnes en situation de handicap n'en sont pas moins épargnées. L'insertion professionnelle de ces personnes est, aujourd'hui, une ...

Nowadays, the problem of care for people with disabilities is a major concern. Many studies prove that handicaps strongly impact modern society, economically and socially. Dependence, resulting in disability situations, is the inability to perform alone the tasks of daily living. A specialized assistance or even hospitalization, in the most advanced cases, may become necessary. Politicians were not deceived by making this issue a priority, particularly in France where the government has provided large sums of money. The World Health Organization, in its latest definition of disability says that disability is situational and that a suitable environment can compensate for the inability and correct the dependency. We can wonder, to what degree, can technology bring in the life of every day, a certain degree of comfort and independence for disabled people? Today, technology brings through intelligent houses, pervasive systems and home automation, the necessary resources for people to gain autonomy and stay longer at home. These solutions are based on specialized support services adapted to the uniqueness of the patient's pathology. Thus, a patient with physical disabilities could have an environment control solution while a patient with cognitive impairment may compensate for his disability through behavior analysis solutions. We offer a healthcare solution combining the two fields of action, to compensate for situations of multiple handicaps. To ensure independence, living comfort, security, health surveillance and home care for disabled people, algorithms require a lot of processing resources. The lack of processing devices can slow or even block the deployment of different assistive tasks and question considerably the user experience and therefore the acceptance of the solution. Neglecting the impact of resources for deploying can lead to inconvenient situations, even dangerous in the case of vital emergency. Can we really offer the best possible assistance service if our infrastructure does not allow its ...

Neglecting the impact of resources for deploying can lead to inconvenient situations, even dangerous in the case of vital emergency. Can we really offer the best possible assistance service if our infrastructure does not allow its achievement? To address this problem, designers oversize the solution. In other words, extra dedicated and expensive equipments are installed in the person's environment. This attitude, although widely used in the industry, does not respect the recommendations of ambient assisted living, which aim to reduce the cost criteria and intrusiveness. Modern lifestyles imply that today's home, without any particular modifications, is already full of home-automation and electronic devices with unused capacities. We offer a resource modeling approach to highlight their abilities. However, be aware of these capabilities is not enough, the system also need to know how to manage them to facilitate the deployment of assistive services. Indeed, if the system can properly manage the utilization of the capabilities of one resource, the joint optimization of several resources, at the same, time is not enough controlled. We have set up a contextual deployment flow which, thanks to the knowledge of the environment and resources, can deploy a service on any devices capable of carrying out the operation. A distribution of the processing load, uniformly, helps to ensure dependability of our solution, by avoiding resource bottlenecks and overall system overload. ; À notre époque, la problématique de la prise en charge des personnes en situation de handicap est d'une importance majeure. Nombreuses sont les études qui prouvent qu'économiquement et socialement le handicap impacte fortement la société moderne. La dépendance, résultat des situations de handicap, est l'incapacité de réaliser seul les tâches de la vie courante. Une aide spécialisée, voire l'hospitalisation dans les cas les plus avancés, peut devenir nécessaire. Les politiques ne se sont pas trompés en faisant de cet enjeu une priorité, notamment en France où le gouvernement a débloqué d'importantes sommes d'argent. L'Organisation Mondiale de la Santé, dans sa dernière définition du handicap, explique que le handicap est situationnel et qu'un environnement adapté peut compenser l'incapacité et supprimer la dépendance. Nous pouvons nous demander dans quelle mesure la technologie peut apporter, dans la vie de tous les jours, un certain degré de confort et une autonomie aux personnes dépendantes. La technologie apporte, aujourd'hui par l'intermédiaire des habitats intelligents, des systèmes pervasifs et de la domotique, les moyens nécessaires aux personnes pour gagner en autonomie et vivre plus longtemps à domicile. Ces solutions s'appuient sur des services d'assistance spécialisés, adaptés à la singularité de la pathologie du patient. Ainsi, un patient en situation de handicap physique se verra proposer une solution de contrôle d'environnement tandis qu'un patient souffrant de trouble cognitif pourra compenser son handicap grâce aux solutions d'analyse du comportement. Nous proposons une solution d'assistance unifiant les deux champs d'action, pour compenser les situations de polyhandicaps. Pour assurer autonomie, confort de vie, sécurité, surveillance et assistance à domicile des personnes dépendantes, les algorithmes d'assistance requièrent beaucoup de ressources de traitement et le manque de ces dernières peut ralentir voire bloquer le déploiement des différentes tâches et remettre en question considérablement l'expérience utilisateur et par conséquent l'acceptation de la solution. Négliger l'impact des ressources sur le déploiement peut mener à des situations de fonctionnement gênantes, voire dangereuses, dans le cas d'une urgence vitale. Peut-on vraiment proposer le meilleur service d'assistance possible si notre infrastructure ne permet pas sa réalisation ? Pour répondre à cette problématique, les concepteurs surdimensionnent la solution. Autrement dit, des équipements supplémentaires, spécialisés et couteux, sont installés. Toutefois, cette attitude très répandue dans l'industrie ne respecte pas les recommandations de l'aide au handicap, qui cherchent à réduire les critères de couts et d'intrusivité, notamment. Les habitudes de vie moderne impliquent que la maison d'aujourd'hui, sans modifications particulières, regorge déjà d'équipements domotiques et électroniques aux capacités inexploitées. Nous proposons une approche de modélisation des ressources pour mettre en évidence leurs capacités. Cependant, avoir conscience de ces capacités ne suffit pas, il faut aussi les connaître et savoir les gérer pour faciliter le déploiement des services d'assistance. En effet, si l'exploitation des capacités au niveau d'une ressource est correctement maitrisée, l'optimisation conjointe des capacités de plusieurs ressources est quant à elle moins développée. Nous avons mis en place un flot de déploiement contextuel qui grâce à la connaissance de son environnement et des ressources qui le composent peut déployer un service sur n'importe quel équipement capable de le réaliser. Une répartition de la charge de traitement de manière uniforme permet de garantir une sureté de fonctionnement en évitant un engorgement des ressources et une surcharge globale du système.
