Abstract

Contemporary intersectional perspectives discuss that the recognition of difference and economic redistribution are sides of the same coin and call for integrated models to achieve social justice (Fraser, 2007). Working with individuals who were unable to perform activities in their life, from the simplest to the most complex, Benetton observed that this characteristic marked a certain position that excluded them from participating in social life, leaving them on the margins of countless decisions about the conduct of their lives. Doing nothing, being locked up, attacking and destroying, mobilizes the system that s/he belongs with such force that no one close is immune (Benetton, 1994, p. 7). [...]Benetton (1994, 2010) determines a purpose for care "[...] the maintenance or the very social insertion" (Benetton, 1994, p. 64). In the clinic, the singularity only allows us to reflect and elaborate under relative values (Benetton, 1994, p. 64). [...]moving away from previous judgments or classifications, the author proposes to understand what is at stake in the person's current situation, paralyzing him/her and establishing such a position of exclusion.
