Theoretical and Legal Problems of Inclusive Education and Labor Integration of Disabled People into Society (By the Example of «Moscow State University of Humanities and Economics»)

To embody the sociality of the Russian state at the federal and regional levels, strategic programs to build an inclusive society, a society of equal opportunities for people with and without disabilities, have been developed. However, there are a number of problems that do not allow achieving the desired result: 1) the use of words and phrases in the names of universities that discriminate against people with disabilities (inclusive, special, etc.); 2) the long period of the stay of disabled people in educational organizations, where socialization does not take place in their usual environment, which differs from the environment of society; 3) incorrect implementation of the model of inclusion: it’s not healthy people should come to disabled people, but disabled people should go to ordinary society; 4) the lack of inclusive readiness among employers to cooperate with people with disabilities. To solve the indicated problems of achieving the proper level of inclusiveness of education and successful labor integration of people with disabilities into society, it is necessary: 1) to exclude from the Law on Education the right of universities to use discriminatory words or phrases in their names; 2) to change the process of involving disabled people in society by distributing them from specialized to regular universities; 3) to implement in all universities some technological solutions for the implementation of an accessible environment and adaptability of educational programs; 4) to increase the percentage of job quotas for people with disabilities, to develop and implement incentive programs for employers.
