GARDOU, Charles  and  DEVELAY, Michel. What instances of handicap and the inclusive education "tell" Educational Sciences . Rev. Lusófona de Educação [online]. 2005, n.6, pp.31-45. ISSN 1645-7250.

Based on the discussion concerning the relevance of making situations of handicap and the inclusive education a topic for inves-tigation by Educational Sciences, the authors cover the History of Education, unearthing the treasure bequeathed by those who, at times of great adversity, were able to make a difference by educating those excluded by the system. They argue that the Educational Sciences constitute the right place to conduct rese-arch in this area, due to developmental and anthropological reasons, so that the educa-tional sciences prevail for one fundamental reason, that of the wager on the relationship between action and knowledge. They conclude by stating that the situa-tions of handicap and the inclusive educa-tion hold the biggest secret for the success in monitoring and education: the refusal of determinisms.
