Abstract

The present study investigates the perception of difficulties and possibilities of social inclusion of People with Disabilities in three of the ten islands of the archipelago of Cape Verde. It was used both concepts the differentiation principles of Bourdieu and the stigma of Goffman to build the instrument of investigation. A questionnaire was applied in 67 People with Disabilities in Cape Verdean Islands. Three factors were considered: perception of the social relations; self-esteem and barriers to citizenship. It was verified that with the increase of the family income, the instruction level of People with Disabilities increases and smaller are the difficulties regarding the barriers to citizenship
