Abstract
O artigo analisa o surgimento recente do movimento de neurodiversidade, situando-o no contexto dos estudos sobre a deficiência e da organização política de deficientes físicos. O movimento da neurodiversidade é organizado por autistas chamados de alto funcionamento que consideram que o autismo não é uma doença a ser tratada e se for possível curada. Trata-se antes de uma diferença humana que deve ser respeitada como outras diferenças (sexuais, raciais, entre outras). Os ativistas do movimento de neurodiversidade se opõem aos grupos de pais de filhos autistas e profissionais que buscam uma cura para a doença. No texto, são apresentados os argumentos dos grupos pró-cura e anticura, avaliando as duas posições e seu impacto na área da saúde e no desenvolvimento de políticas públicas para autistas.
This article analyzes the emergence of the neurodiversity movement in the context of studies about disabilities and the political organization of disabled people. The neurodiversity movement is organized by the so-called high functioning autists, who believe that autism is not a disease to be treated and, if possible, cured. It is instead a human difference that has to be respected just like other differences (sexual, racial, among others). The activists of the neurodiversity movement oppose the groups of parents of autistic children and professionals seeking for a cure for autism. This article presents the arguments of the pro- and anti-cure groups and analyzes both positions as well as their impact upon the field of health and the development of public policies for autists.
