“…Laura's case also states that, at the root of vulnerability, is also our dependence on the cooperation of others 22 , attributing a strong relational aspect to vulnerability. In this sense, in us the pain, abuse, humiliation or ostracism can cause psychological vulnerability, in the same way we are vulnerable to exploitation and oppression.…”

A theoretical study in which disability is evidenced as a heuristic device to investigate the human condition. The relationship between disability and human condition has been little explored. The first section analyzes how vulnerability and dependence belong to the human condition and affect disability by conditioning the loss of qualities. Subsequently, the peculiar modality of possession of our qualities is analyzed. The third part argues that even though a human being with intellectual disability may not manifest rationality this does not suppose an exclusion of the status of person. Finally, it is explained how, although qualities can be lost with the disability, it is not possible to lose the embodiment and belonging to the human family. The heuristic approach was used with the formulation of questions based on three hypothetical cases. Disability is a manifestation of the human condition. It has heuristic value because it helps to examine constitutive aspects of our existence. Keywords: Intellectual disability. Heuristics. Mentally disabled persons. Vulnerability personal. Dependency (psychology). ResumoDeficiência: uma heurística para a condição humana Estudo teórico em que a deficiência é evidenciada como dispositivo heurístico para sondar a condição humana. A relação entre deficiência e condição humana tem sido pouco explorada. A primeira seção analisa como vulnerabilidade e dependência pertencem à condição humana e afetam a deficiência, condicionando a perda de qualidades. Posteriormente, a ideia de posse de nossas qualidades é analisada. Na terceira parte se argumenta que, embora um ser humano com deficiência intelectual não possa manifestar racionalidade, isso não supõe a exclusão do status pessoal. Por último, se explica como, apesar de ser possível perderem-se qualidades na deficiência, não é possível perder a corporeidade e o pertencimento à família humana. A abordagem heurística foi utilizada com a formulação de questões com base em três casos hipotéticos. A deficiência é uma manifestação da condição humana e tem valor heurístico porque ajuda a examinar aspectos constitutivos de nossa existência. Palavras-chave: Deficiência intelectual. Heurística. Pessoas com deficiência mental. Vulnerabilidade pessoal. Dependência (psicologia).

“…A nivel de NU se contempla la protección de los derechos de las minorías en el artículo 27 del Pacto Internacional de Derechos Civiles y Políticos de 1966 (PIDCP) y el artículo 30 de la Convención de los Derechos del Niño de 1989, y especialmente, en la Declaración sobre los Derechos de las Personas Pertenecientes a Minorías Nacionales o Étnicas, Religiosas y Lingüísticas de 1992; aunque en todos estos casos el derecho debe ser ejercido individualmente por el miembro del grupo (y no por un ente colectivo). Asimismo, como se indicó anteriormente, el TEDH ha abordado el tema de la vulnerabilidad colectiva principalmente respecto de ciertos grupos como el pueblo gitano, los solicitantes de asilo o las personas con discapacidad 61 . Por su parte, la CIDH ha profundizado en el análisis de la vulnerabilidad socio-económica como una característica transversal que transciende membresías nacionales, étnicas, religiosas o lingüísticas 62 .…”

Resumen: Este estudio sostiene que la seguridad humana guarda una relación conceptual con el derecho internacional público y que además en años recientes se han desarrollado diversas expresiones prácticas de la seguridad humana relevantes para esta rama del derecho que merecen ser estudiadas con mayor detalle. A ese respecto, el enfoque central de este texto no es proporcionar evidencia total de la materialización normativa de la seguridad humana en las fuentes tradicionales del derecho internacional público, sino más bien profundizar en el análisis de las implicaciones normativas de la seguridad humana, especialmente en su simbiosis con los derechos humanos reconocidos por el derecho internacional. Una de las preocupaciones centrales del derecho internacional público contemporáneo es, precisamente, el área del derecho internacional de los derechos humanos. Como tal, se hace referencia a las fuentes del derecho internacional público y se detalla y aclara la manera en que la seguridad humana se relaciona con ellas en el campo concreto de los derechos humanos.Palabras clave: seguridad humana, derecho internacional público, derecho internacional de los derechos humanos, derechos humanos, vulnerabilidad. Abstract:This study argues that human security holds a conceptual relationship with public international law and that in recent years several practical expressions of human security have been developed in a manner relevant to this area of the law and, thus, they deserve to be analyzed in further detail. In this respect, the main emphasis of this text is not to provide integral evidence of the normative materialization of human security in the traditional sources of public international law, but rather to deepen in the examination of the normative implications of human security, particularly in its synergies with human rights recognized internationally. One of the main concerns of modern public international law is, precisely, the area of international human rights law. As such, reference is made to the sources of public international law and closer attention is provided to the concrete ways in which human security relates to them in the sphere of human rights.

Narratives of Social Inclusion in the Context of Roma School Segregation

Despite a series of judgements from the European Court of Human Rights and the enactment of the EU Racial Equality Directive, the educational segregation of Roma pupils persists in several European states. State action plans submitted pursuant to the European Framework for Roma Integration rarely provide clear targets and do not commit to inclusive schooling. Taking education as a principle indicator of social inclusion, this article identifies that structural inequality and entrenched discriminatory attitudes are the main obstacles to Roma inclusion. This can only be addressed through the diffusion of legal and social norms that mainstream equality. Focusing on the legal obligations, it is argued that the European Commission must be more decisive and effective in the enforcement of non-discrimination rules. A closer dialogue between the European Court of Human Rights and the EU institutions, grounded in a non-targeted social inclusion frame, could provide a platform for European consensus which may help to secure meaningful change.
