Nowadays, to have a job is the best way to get a successful personal development. However, we find that people with disabilities have difficulties in accessing the labour market, even when they have successfully completed their university studies. This paper describes and analyzes the situation of people with disabilities who have graduated from the ULPGC between 2000 and 2010. The career trajectories of 96 graduates have been reviewed by matching the records from the ULPGC and those of The Canary Islands Observatory of Employment (OBECAN). Four indicators have been used: job placement, registered unemployment, temporary employment, and occupation. The results show that one in two people achieves a job according to their training in the third year after graduation, which suggests certain positive effects of university studies on job placement

This article aims to problematize, on the one hand, the relationship that people establishes with their homes in the daily dynamics. That is, how they occupy, decorate, use and organize the environments of the house. On the other hand, the objective is to know how this living is produced in relation to the locality where they live: Haedo. The material culture is appealed to in two senses: of the house and of the objects that compose the inhabitant. The data comes from the ethnography I made between 2015 and 2019 with the family of Gloria, a resident of Haedo.

This work exposes some of the issues that directly affect the way of understanding and approaching the reality of people whose global functioning differs from the standards generally accepted as “normal.” In the first part, the issues that affect the use of language and its influence on the cultural and symbolic representation of disability are reviewed; The following are the considerations on personal and sexual assistance as the basis of an effectively independent life. Third, two classic bioethical questions are debated, abortion and euthanasia, their relationship with the politics of tolerance and their implications in the lives of people with functional diversity. Finally, alternatives are explored, to move from the politics of tolerance to the “politics of desire.

The documentary genre is a subjective and vindictive cinema that has been used for activist practices since its creation, broadening viewpoints, breaking taboos and showing different, rich and plural realities. The documentaries Yes we fuck!, Jo també vull sexe! and Crip Camp have in common the visibility of the political potential of bodies in rebellion. In this article, we will present a state of the art on the relationship between sexuality and functional diversity. We will then carry out an audiovisual analysis, with a qualitative and interdisciplinary approach, of the selected documentaries, placing special emphasis on the social transgressions that mean openly showing sexualities and diverse bodies. Among the main results, it is worth highlighting the way in which the documentary genre increases the degree of personal and collective empowerment and ends up becoming a weapon of political vindication.

The concept of disability, which is not unitary in our legal system, is in constant evolution, and proof of this is the recent jurisprudence of the TJUE, which in the field of occupation and employment, has meant the configuration of a flexible concept of disability, which allows for the extension of the legal protection of Council Directive 2000/78/EC, of 27 November 2000, relating to the establishment of a general framework for equal treatment in employment and occupation, to those workers who suffer from ailments which, despite not being administratively classified as a disability, are worthy of this special protection. This doctrine is a novelty since, even though it is limited to labour relations, it abandons the traditional conception of disability as a permanent and irreversible situation.

The Spanish rural territory of the peninsular interior is immersed in a serious demographic crisis that threatens the survival of a relevant part of its municipalities. During the almost two decades of the 21st century, the trends of depopulation and abandonment, of aging and masculinization of the rural population have not been corrected, but have been chronified to lead to an intense process of demographic desertification of the rural habitat segregated from networks and activities of capitalist globalization. A Copernican change in territorial planning and planning policies is urgently needed, promoting a reform of the Local Administration towards the federal constitution of Comarcas and an endogenous and integral ecodevelopment that basically rejuvenates the rural population thanks to the immigration
