Abstract

The term normalisation was developed during the late 1950s in Denmark in respect of creating ‘normal’ living conditions for people with learning difﬁculties. The term has become increasingly inﬂuential in service development for disadvantaged groups and particularly people with disabilities (Emerson 1992). Its leading proponent has continuously revised the term and established it as both a principle and a theoretical perspective (Wolfensberger 1972, 1984).
