Tirando certas limitações, eu me vejo uma pessoa normal: o exercício da classificação social e o mercado de trabalho.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the classification of people with disabilities and mechanisms of social inclusion / exclusion in relation to the labor market within the framework of the Foundation for Support to Persons with Disabilities (FUNAD), located in João Pessoa, Paraíba. Investigation of the mechanisms that produce the other typified deficient, through qualitative research of the exploratory type with the predominance of analytical techniques of ethnographic field work, is part of the discussion about the problem of inclusion / exclusion of the person with disability in the market of work and presents elements of reflection on classification, qualification and inclusion / exclusion in the labor market, considering the view of the one who constitutes as a person with disability in their relationship with the other, within the current, inclusive logic. Most entrepreneurs tend not to hire a disabled person on the grounds that they are not qualified. Understanding the elements that qualify a person for work is another aspect analyzed. The object of study is delimited by the following question: what social instruments make it / classify a person as a person with a disability? The possible hypotheses of the research were delimited: the person with the disability is a being produced from symbolic social aspects and / or: also the work articulates symbolic elements of social attributions constitutive of identity through the structuring relationship between classification, organization, location social, productive forces, performance, production and disability. It was defined as a premise of analysis that the social processes of symbolic interaction produce the category person with disability through social mechanisms of classification and hierarchy. To do so, the research presents itself based on the following assumptions: knowledge about the person with disability comprises a temporal, historical and political act; the body is constituted through the relation between knowledge and power; it is understood that in the modern capitalist context the category of persons with disabilities is now understood through State acts and the existence of the category of persons with disabilities has a close relationship with the production of one's material life. The theoretical foundation is based on the concept of symbolic power of Bourdieu that allows through the categories of analysis to understand the object of study. According to the research, the historical mechanisms of classification linked to the processes of control and discipline of the body, from the means of production of existence, act as structuring social tools of the disabled person category.
