This article discusses the analogy between the colonial system and the features of the contemporary disability discourse. In the context of the changes that have already taken place and those that we still expect and do not follow, I will try to compare the selected assumptions of the contemporary educational system with the features of space limited by the colonial boundaries of freedom and identity of disabled individuals, their depersonalization and subordination. As a possible way to improve, I will try to show the basic assumptions of the Homi K. Bhabha’s concept of the Third Space, extending the still pedagogical boundaries of research into a new area of postcolonial theory.

Paradygmaty pedagogiki w oficjalnym dyskursie pedagogicznym jako narzędziu polityki edukacyjnej

Nowadays, the quality of our educational policy for students with special needs is unsufficient. The goal of the article is to show possible dependencies between the language used in the contemporary official pedagogical discourse (educational policy tool) and the way in which students with special educational needs are perceived. On the basis of critical analysis of the provisions of selected educational law acts, I will show that these acts are dominated by descriptions which are characteristic for the biological paradigm of disability perception and which could imply negative stereotypes and stigmatization of students with special needs.
