This paper intends to summarize the path of inclusive teacher agency starting from its first definitions, now over twenty years ago. A construct that has been defined over time, and which has changed and adapted its definition over time based on scientific research and the evolution of inclusive policies by different states. What emerges is an extremely varied overview in terms of temporal succession, specific applications and policies in different areas of the world. Italian research arrives at inclusive teacher agency relatively late compared to other states, despite having thought about inclusion historically before others, starting from the 1970s: if we allow a touch of irony, we seem to hear the famous Risorgimento proverb by Ferdinando Martini, in a pedagogical sense: «After making Italy (inclusive), we must make Italians (inclusive teachers)». Which many times already are, perhaps lacking a systemic and unitary vision. Here is proposed a longitudinal (in temporal terms) and transversal (in geographical terms) overview of the research in this regard: the aim is not only a vision in historical and geographical terms, but it seeks to summarize the path taken in order to guide contemporary and future research.
il presente articolo intende sintetizzare il cammino della teacher agency inclusiva a partire dalle sue prime definizioni, ormai oltre vent’anni fa. Un costrutto che è andato definendosi nel corso del tempo, e che nel tempo ha cambiato e adattato la sua definizione in base alle ricerche scientifiche e all’evolversi delle politiche inclusive ad opera dei diversi Stati. Ne emerge una panoramica estremamente variegata per successione temporale e applicazioni specifiche e politiche nelle diverse zone del mondo. La ricerca italiana perviene alla teacher agency inclusiva relativamente in ritardo rispetto ad altri Stati, pur avendo pensato l’inclusione storicamente prima di altri, già a partire dagli anni Settanta del secolo scorso: se si consente una punta di ironia, sembra di sentire il celebre proverbio risorgimentale di Ferdinando Martini, in accezione pedagogica «Fatta l’Italia (inclusiva), bisogna fare gli italiani (insegnanti inclusivi)». Che già molte volte lo sono, forse mancando di una visione sistemica e unitaria. Ci si propone una panoramica longitudinale (in termini temporali) e trasversale (in termini geografici) della ricerca in merito: lo scopo non è solamente una visione in termini storici e geografici, ma anche di fare sintesi del percorso effettuato al fine di indirizzare la ricerca contemporanea e futura.

Abstract
This paper intends to summarize the path of inclusive teacher agency starting from its first definitions, now over twenty years ago. A construct that has been defined over time, and which has changed and adapted its definition over time based on scientific research and the evolution of inclusive policies by different states. What emerges is an extremely varied overview in terms of temporal succession, specific applications and policies in different areas of the world. Italian research arrives at inclusive teacher agency relatively late compared to other states, despite having thought about inclusion historically before others, starting from the 1970s: if we allow a touch of irony, we seem to hear the famous Risorgimento proverb by Ferdinando Martini, in a pedagogical sense: «After making Italy (inclusive), we must make Italians (inclusive teachers)». Which many times already are, perhaps lacking a systemic and unitary vision. Here is proposed a longitudinal (in temporal terms) and transversal (in geographical terms) overview of the research in this regard: the aim is not only a vision in historical and geographical terms, but it seeks to summarize the path taken in order to guide contemporary and future research.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
