- Abstract
- In this article, we first discuss changing professional paradigms and knowledge systems in disability policy and practice, that result in contemporary institutional conceptions and conditions of ‘de-institutionalisation’. Second, we address that the current ‘community turn’ in strategies (see Gibson, 2001; Mansell, 2006; Milligan & Wiles, 2010; Tøssebro et al., 2012; Roets et al., 2020) has gradually produced a problematic dichotomy in disability policy and practice between ‘segregated living in residential, institutional contexts’ being framed as something to avoid, and ‘inclusive living in the community’ as a desirable goal. Based on this historical sketch, the question can be asked to what extent the ‘community turn’ can be reconciled with the complex challenges involved in the provision of care and support for the most vulnerable people with disabilities, when they are constructed and treated as ‘incompetent citizens’ due to normative ableist assumptions in societies. For this reason, we suggest that a socio-spatial professional orientation might enable us to de-institutionalise this dominant dichotomy.
