The Italian Process of Integrating Students with Disabilities: a School Reform of the 1970s as Narrated by Television and Cinema

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contribution

Abstract

The aim of the analysis is to establish how several audio-visuals represent the transition from exclusion to integration for children with disabilities in the Italian school system and also to assess how they differ in relation to recording contemporary reality (in the case of the documentaries) or in terms of evoking and revisiting a historical phase of the past (in the case of the films). This comparison, which will be conducted within the historical-educational paradigm of research on school memory (Yanes-Cabrera, Meda &Viñao, 2017; Alfieri & Garai, 2022), will shed light upon the extent to which the interpretation of an extremely significant reform was influenced or determined by changes in societal outlook over time.
