Abstract

Although the concept of special education emerged centuries ago, public responsibility for the education and treatment of children with disabilities is a relatively new venture and has given rise to controversies, questions, and a range of opinions. Special education is driven by political, social, and economic factors, which only increases the volatility of the field.
