First-order differentiability properties of a class of equality constrained optimal value functions with applications
Authors: Sturm Kevin
Published: December 2020

In this paper we study the right differentiability of a parametric infimum
function over a parametric set defined by equality constraints. We present a
new theorem with sufficient conditions for the right differentiability with
respect to the parameter. Target applications are nonconvex objective functions
with equality constraints arising in optimal control and shape optimisation.
The theorem makes use of the averaged adjoint approach in conjunction with the
variational approach of Kunisch, Ito and Peichl. We provide two examples of our
abstract result: (a) a shape optimisation problem involving a semilinear
partial differential equation which exhibits infinitely many solutions, (b) a
finite dimensional quadratic function subject to a nonlinear equation.

Glaucoma is one of the major causes of vision loss in today’s world. Glaucoma is a disease in the eye where fluid pressure in the eye increases; if it is not timely cured, the patient may lose their vision. Glaucoma can be detected by examining boundary of optics cup and optics disc acquired from fundus images. The proposed method suggest automatic detect the boundary of optics cup and optics disc with processing of fundus images. This paper explores the new approach fast fuzzy C-mean technique for segmenting the optic disc and optic cup in fundus images. Results evaluated by fast fuzzy C mean a technique is faster than fuzzy C-mean method. The proposed method reported results to 91.91%, 90.49% and 90.17% when tested on DRIONS, DRIVE and STARE on publicly available databases of fundus images.

Published: December 2020

The obtaining and investigation of various complex compounds of the biologically active aromatic heterocyclic ligands with platinum and palladium are of interest due to their potential medical applications. To that end, 4-amino pyridine containing cyclic and exocyclic nitrogen atoms has been used. The main aim of this work is to clarify which nitrogen atom of the ligand composes stronger and more stable bond. For that purpose, the synthesis of palladium salts with ligand has been accomplished within a wide interval of pH (3-12) and temperature (50-800C). The cation-anion and neutral complex compounds have been obtained depending on stoichiometric ratio of the reacting components, temperature and pH and was further studied. As a result of IR-spectroscopic investigation of synthesized complexes, the acquired information demonstrated that the pyridine nitrogen atom of the ligand is protonated and composes outer sphere as monocharged cation. However, tetraacidoanion is formed in the inner sphere. In the alkaline medium the ligand is monodentately coordinated with palladium through nitrogen atom of pyridine. The exocyclic nitrogen atom of the ligand does not participate in the coordination regardless of pH of the medium and stoichiometric ratio of the taken compounds. As a result of investigation of the thermal stability of the complexes it was determined that the neutral complexes are decomposed without melting at higher temperature than cation-anion complexes. It has been found that one of the factors that affects thermal stability is the steric structure of the complexes. The initial biological probes were accomplished and the correlation between their biological activities, composition and structures of complexes were determined. Despite the fact of taking the same medium and ligand, the cation-anion complexes indicate completely different biological activities than neutral ones.
Gender sensitivity in pedagogical practices in secondary education in Bhutan
Authors: Yuden Yuden , Chuki Sonam , Dorji Tshewang
Published: December 2020

The terrain of gender inequities in education has seen many changes in recent times. The purpose of the study was to find out the gender sensitivity in pedagogical practices in secondary education in Bhutan. The study was qualitative and used non-probability convenient sampling techniques. The study used classroom observations to gain the first-hand experience of a normal classroom and focus group discussions with teachers and students to get in-depth views. The classroom observation and focus group discussion data were analysed using the process of emerging themes. The study revealed that teachers were not gendered sensitive in pedagogical practices in the secondary education level. There were challenges in understanding gender in education both by teachers and students. There was neither gender awareness nor conscious effort made by teachers to address gender inequality in the classroom. A gender-responsive education that supports the realization of student full potential requires the teachers to practice gender-sensitive pedagogy. To address the issue, there is an immediate need for gender awareness and sensitization among teachers and school leaders. Teacher education colleges should introduce modules such as gender and education or gender and development so that the classroom environment is gender-sensitive and gender friendly.
Innovative Movement Strategies for Adolescents with Autism Spectrum Disorder: A Review of Dance and Exergaming Interventions
Authors: Garcia Alexandra , Bode Alison , Camillone Sarah , Rao Asha
Published: December 2020

Background: Given the types of symptoms present in individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), interventions should address deficits in motor control, social interactions, and emotional intelligence. Alternative interventions, such as exercise video gaming (exergaming) and dance movement therapy, may address these deficits in an engaging, age-appropriate manner, thus meeting the unique needs of adolescents with ASD. Objectives: The purpose of this paper was first, to review the current literature on ASD for innovative movement strategies feasible to address emotional, social, cognitive, and physical outcomes for adolescents ages 11-18; and second, to determine the effectiveness of these interventions. Methods: The databases used were: Pubmed, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, EMBASE, CINAHL, Psycinfo, REHABDATA, Human Kinetics Journal, and PEDro. Search terms included: autism or autism spectrum disorder; and dance, dancing or dance therapy, or exergaming, exergame, video gaming or video game. Selected articles were published in the last 10 years, written in English, and included subjects with ASD who participated in dance or exergaming interventions. After the initial screening of articles with relevant titles and abstracts, we included studies with evidence levels of 1-4. Results: Five dance therapy intervention studies showed moderate effectiveness for social and emotional outcomes such as empathy skills, emotional regulation, and negative symptoms of ASD. Four exergaming studies had moderate effectiveness for motor and physical outcomes, such as energy expenditure and perceived object control. Implications: Based on the review of dance and exergaming intervention studies, the authors recommend providing the interventions to selected clients depending on individual circumstances. Both dance and exergaming may be cost-effective and feasible in school settings. Future studies should include larger and more diverse samples with rigorous randomization procedures
Povijest tuberkuloze

Tuberkuloza je imala velik utjecaj na povijest čovječanstva pa tako i na umjetnost. Što bi umjetnički geniji iz svijeta književnosti, glazbe i slikarstva stvorili da nisu umrli vrlo mladi? U radu je prikazan utjecaj tuberkuloze na stvaranje umjetnika koji su bolovali od tuberkuloze. Tijekom romantizma pojavilo se mišljenje da tuberkuloza u oboljelih povećava kreativne sposobnosti. Među piscima koji su oboljeli od tuberkuloze bili su poznati njemački pisci: Wolfgang von Goethe, Friedrich Schiller i Georg Philipp Friedrich von Hardenberg. Tuberkulozan je bio i pisao o tubekulozi Lord Gordon Byron, a i Edgar Allan Poe je još kao dijete ostao bez roditelja oboljenih od tubekuloze, a i sam je umro od te bolesti. John Keats, engleski pjesnik, a i cijela njegova obitelj umrli su od tuberkuloze; od tuberkuloze je umro i ruski književnik Anton Pavlovič Čehov. Obitelj Brontë jedna je od najtragičnijih, ali isto tako i najtalentiranijih književnih obitelji. Svi su kao vrlo mladi umrli od tuberkuloze. Antun Branko Šimić, jedan od najvećih hrvatskih pjesnika, umro je od tuberkuloze u 27. godini života. Iako nije dugo živio, A. B. Šimić ostavio je iznimno bogati knjiženi opus. Mnogobrojna obitelj, otac i braća Ive Andrića književnika i dobitnika Nobelove nagrade za kniževnost umrli su od tuberkuloze, a i sam Ivo Andrić je dugo bolovao od te bolesti. U operama “La Traviata” Giuseppea Verdija i “La bohème” Giacoma Puccinija tematizirana je bolest toga vremena. tuberkuloza. Frederic Chopin, utjelovljenje je romantičarskog umjetnika, ne samo zbog pripadnosti stilskom razdoblju romantizma, već i zbog svog života ispunjenog događajima, osobnih i društvenih patnji. Umro je u 39. godini od tuberkuloze i uz velike je počasti pokopan na groblju Père Lachasie u Parizu, a njegovo je srce, potajno, prenijeto u Varšavu, gdje je uzidano u jedan stup crkve Svetoga Križa. Tuberkuloza je bila zastupljena i u likovnoj umjetnosti. Talijanski slikar Amadeo Modigliani, u početku svog umjetničkog rada želio je postati kipar, ali tjelesni napor prilikom klesanja, prašina i kašalj odvratili su ga od klesanja i vratili slikarstvu. Umro je od tuberkuloze u 36. godini života. Ferdinandu Hodleru, švicarskom slikaru, otac, majka, braća i sestre umrli su od tuberkuloze. Ovo teško iskustvo bolesti i smrti odrazilo se na njegovo slikarstvo. Edvard Munch, samouki norveški slikar bio je duboko pogođen smrću voljenih članova obitelji. Mračna raspoloženja tjeskobe i očaja ogledavaju se na njegovim platnima.

Usprkos njihovim kratkim životima, svaki je od njih ostvario izniman, cjelovit i znatan umjetnički opus.
Integration of Section and Model: Reflections from a Studio Practice
Authors: Tuztasi Ugur , Koc Pinar
Published: December 2020

This text discusses an experimental pedagogical method coded as from ‘section-model to space’. The theory of the study is the integration of basic design exercises and the architectural project studio. Instead of the disconnected understanding of the architectural project studio with basic design exercises, outputs of the two studios are integrated and design processes come to the fore as a new learning setup. The main idea of the method is to find transformations from basic design models and to benefit from basic design principles in an architectural design of a building. Methods proceed through the various design variables by giving the architecture students a fixed design resource that includes practicing the space through a sectional model. The fixed variable in the design research is the output of basic design exercises. Sectional models, which are open to continuous improvement, are experimental tools that initiate a formal organization. This experiment was adopted with a ritual of repetitions; at the end of the process, practical and survey-based inquiries were carried out to test the theory. As a result, the method leads architecture students to analyze spatial design in terms of relationship between the third dimension and tectonic content. Also, it has been observed that the process offers opportunities for empirical research. It was found that the interaction in the studio environment increased with all these models.

The process begins with an experiential inquiry on windows; later to be expanded and complexified by other spatial elements such as doors, stairs, ramps, and bridges. In the end, the students develop proposals for a research, learning, and recreation center that aims at problematizing and restoring our relationship to nature in the context of a lake ecosystem.
La buena gobernanza de las finanzas públicas y el desarrollo económico
Authors:   Université Paris-Nanterre, France, Tirard Manuel
Published: December 2020

El concepto de buen gobierno de las finanzas públicas surgió en los años noventa dentro del discurso de las organizaciones internacionales para promover temas bien conocidos hoy, como el rendimiento del gasto público, la transparencia del presupuesto público, etc. Tras la crisis del 2008, este concepto ha evolucionado hacia la obligación de respetar el equilibrio presupuestario. En todo caso, se debe contrastar la recepción nacional de las prescripciones internacionales en materia de buen gobierno de las finanzas públicas, lo que mostrará las dificultades que implica querer aplicar las mismas reglas jurídicas en todo lugar. El ejemplo de la recepción diversa de la regla de oro de las finanzas públicas por las legislaciones de los Estados europeos lo confirma.
El bienestar social y el buen vivir: los olvidados en la toma de decisiones en materia económica
Authors:   Université Paris-Vincennes-Saint Denis, Francia, Koubi Geneviève
Published: December 2020

El «buen vivir» designa un paradigma inherente al campo social que busca centrarse en valores humanos como la solidaridad y el modelo de desarrollo sustentable; en este sentido, se diferencia del «vivir mejor», que es una interpretación individualista de la vida, una vida alejada del respeto por el entorno natural y que diviniza la actividad económica. Por ello, esta contribución busca introducir un marco conceptual sobre el «buen vivir», para entender que la función operativa del bienestar social no puede abordarse unidimensionalmente considerando solo la economía, sino también variables medioambientales, como la salud pública, la calidad de vida, la integración social, el acceso a los derechos sociales, etc.; lo cual impacta en la identificación de indicadores que midan también estas variables, con el objetivo de permitir sosteniblemente que todas las personas puedan ser actores del desarrollo social, político y económico.
Good governance and transparency
Authors:   Université Paris-Nanterre, France, Vilone Laura
Published: December 2020

The notion of “good governance” implies the special place given to the State. Such a model is defined by the effectiveness of certain guarantees such as the independence of the judiciary, the correct and fair management of expenditure but also administrative transparency. Indeed, the latter depends on the sincerity of those involved in public action, on the one hand, and the constant dialogue between the public authorities and the public, on the other hand. The purpose of this intervention is to demonstrate that the realisation of the model of “good governance” is based, above all, on the existence of an administration that fully understands the requirements of administrative transparency. The two pillars of “good governance” would thus be the foundations of the principle of transparency: communication with citizens and their participation in the process of the decision-making process.

Authors: Luz Karine Rodrigues da
Published: December 2020

A entesite é uma frequente manifestação de doenças musculoesqueléticas, particularmente no grupo das espondiloartrites, que compartilham essa estrutura como alvo do processo inflamatório. Devido às limitações do exame clínico, o uso de técnicas de imagens se tornou um instrumento pertinente para a detecção e monitoramento das entesites em pacientes com espondiloartrites. O ultrassom (US) apresenta muitas vantagens em relação a outras técnicas de imagem para avaliação das enteses. Também é mais sensível na discriminação entre processos inflamatórios e mecânicos. Este artigo se propõe a revisar os principais conceitos da avaliação ultrassonográfica das entesites.

WORLD SYSTEM, GLOBALIZATION AND RUSSIA NATIONAL INTERESTS
Authors: Nedorezov Vadim , Pisarchik Leonid
Published: December 2020

The authors of the article analyze the view of the World-system of I. Wallerstein, the F. Fukuyama concept of the “end of history” and the W. Beck concept of globalization. The authors focus not only on the concept and essence of globalization, but also on the problem of opposition of modern nation states to globalization processes that negatively affect the statehood and culture of sovereign states. The process of globalization is objective, but the loss of the country's sovereignty threatens to destroy its original culture. The authors show that globalization also carries threats that must be neutralized if we want to survive as a country and as a people. These are threats associated with the widespread dissemination of Western values (Westernization), models of upbringing and education, with Western sanctions against Russia. The neoliberal reforms of the 90s brought our country to its knees. Over the past twenty years, something has been corrected. The authors show that in the current situation it is necessary to make efforts to ensure the sovereignty and defense of the country, its economic growth and protection of the original values of our civilization.

The Asia-Pacific region is one of the most important “poles” of world economic development, but the region lacks a mechanism for regional integration and coordination to counter challenges and risks. ASEAN is the earliest example of integration in the region. Thanks to the active promotion and efforts of this organization regional integration in East Asia has formed a new development model, which gives a new idea for the development of regional integration in the Asia-Pacific region.
POLITICAL ASPECTS OF DIGITALIZATION: THE CHOICE BETWEEN SECURITY AND FREEDOM IN THE GLOBAL WORLD
Authors: Baranov Nikolay
Published: December 2020

The article analyses the dichotomy of modern people’s choice in the context of the ample opportunity provided by information technology, and on the other hand, threats related to the invasion of privacy and offences. Social response to the choice of priority depends on political and cultural perception of the political reality, which was formed with the direct participation of power structures and which is shared by the majority of the population.
SUBJECTIVITY AS THE BASIS OF INFORMATION AND PSYCHOLOGICAL SECURITY
Authors: Zabarin Alexey
Published: December 2020

The current article proposes a model of the loss of identity, society and state subjectivity, as a target of information warfare. Subjectivity is considered as a unity of motivational (“I WANT”), competence (“I CAN”) and moral-psychological (“I NEED”) components. The task of stopping or changing the corresponding activity by the opponent is solved through information and psychological impact on his “WANT”, “CAN”, “NEED”. Both effectively counteracting and information-psychological protection requires increased attention to the factors that ensure the subjectivity of the Russian citizen, society and state. Institutions and processes of formation of ethnocentric motivation of citizens, education and upbringing of the Russian citizen should become information and psychological security installations.
TEACHER CAPACITY BUILDING AS A MEANS OF PROMOTING EDUCATION FOR SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT
(Based on UNESCO and UNECE MATERIALS)
Authors: Dudko Svetlana
Published: December 2020

The article presents the main proposals and recommendations of UNESCO and the UN Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE), aimed at transforming teacher training systems for education for sustainable development (ESD). Since the planet's natural resources are limited, people must learn to use them rationally and, just as importantly, learn to live together and make responsible decisions so that our actions do not negatively affect other people and future generations. All this should be taught from early childhood. This is what education for sustainable development, led by UNESCO, is aimed at. Studying the possibilities of modern education for achieving the goals of sustainable development has led to the understanding that it only partially meets the requirements and challenges of the time. It is necessary to radically transform traditional educational systems and restructure existing models of teaching both students and teachers themselves. The article presents the theories that education for sustainable development is based on, and presents the recommendations of the Economic Commission for Europe on building the capacity of teachers. The difference between environmental education and ESD is explained. Scientists and the pedagogical community of Russia are faced with the task of more actively developing educational work and promoting ideas about education for sustainable development and starting to translate them into reality. There is also a need for more active participation of UNESCO Chairs in Russia in this process.

A field experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of integrated nutrient management modules on garlic yield, nutrient uptake, and pungency during 2011-12 and 2012-13. The experiment consisted of nine treatments that were performed in randomized block design with three replications. Integration of inorganic fertilizers, farm yard manure (FYM) and vermicompost (VC) or poultry manure (PM) or integration of inorganic fertilizers with FYM, VC and PM increased garlic yield by 6.5-7.9 per cent compared to inorganic fertilizers alone and 9.9-11.2 per cent compared to integrated use of single source of organic manure, biofertilizers, and inorganic fertilizers. Pyruvic acid content was higher in the plots received integrated use of inorganic fertilizers, organic manures, and biofertilizers increased soil organic carbon, and maintained soil fertility status compared to pre-planting soil test values. INM treatments had higher levels of nutrient uptake compared to the treatments received inorganic fertilizers alone. This result indicate that the farmers could save 25 per cent inorganic fertilizers and organic manures by integrating inorganic fertilizers, FYM with VC or PM, or by integrating inorganic fertilizers, FYM, VC, and PM.

Este artigo tem por objetivo analisar a projeção do governo brasileiro no cenário internacional. A nova aeronave militar KC-390, projetada pela Empresa Brasileira de Aeronáutica, é o meio que permitirá a inserção brasileira nesse contexto. Para identificar esta notoriedade, realizou-se uma análise das capacidades operacionais através dos requisitos técnicos, logísticos e industriais, estipulados na fase de pré-desenvolvimento do projeto. Em seguida foi demonstrada a aplicabilidade do futuro vetor aéreo nas questões de ajuda humanitária a nível global e suas capacidades em missões de conflito real. Após a rodada de análise e demonstração, evidenciou-se que o KC-390 ratificará a prevalência de relações internacionais pacíficas e a projeção do País no campo da segurança cooperativa, com suas medidas de confiança mútua. Foi possível identificar também que o KC-390 possibilitará, em uma visão prospectiva, uma maior participação brasileira nas operações de paz e proporcionará uma maior assistência material e logística, prestadas para fins de conforto social humanitários nos esforços para o desenvolvimento da paz mundial. Apesar do cenário estável do entorno geopolítico imediato o Brasil não pode prescindir da capacidade militar de cooperação internacional em missões da ONU. O crescimento do país nesse tema pode, então, ser analisado sob o aspecto do crescimento, complexidade e maturidade que a indústria aeronáutica no Brasil atingiu. A natureza da reestruturação da indústria brasileira de defesa também será compreendida, com fulcro em tecnologias sob o domínio nacional fruto da cooperação vasta e multifacetada com parceiros internacionais. Assim, o produto desse trabalho é fundamental para entender o propósito adicional de projeção do Brasil nas relações de cooperação internacional com outros países.

The raw materials used for the production of biodiesel can be vegetable oil, animal tallow or residual fat. Among them, the use of soybean oil stands out. The present study aims to analyze the exergy efficiency of the soybean oil pretreatment process of a biofuel plant in the state of Minas Gerais, with an installed capacity of 152 million liters/year of biodiesel. For that, the calculation of the chemical exergy and the physical exergy of the flows related to the process of refining the oil for biodiesel production was carried out. Plant operating parameters were in order to calculate the exergy efficiency of the process and the mass flow to perform the mass balance of the analyzed plant. The exergetic efficiency of the soybean oil pretreatment process was 88% and destroyed exergy or irreversibility of approximately 11%. Therefore, the yield of the chemical reactions of the process were satisfactory.

Philosophie et théologie dans le cartésianisme : la théorie cartésienne de la création des vérités éternelles et sa postérité
Authors: Chukurian Aurélien
Published: December 2020

This article examines Descartes’ theory of the free creation of eternal truths, showing the theological implications of its underlying philosophical principles. The author ponders the way in which Descartes treats certain topics that pertain to natural theology (God’s dignity and power, the equivocity between the finite and the infinite), as well as the Christological tension that runs through his theory. The theological echoes of this theory are then assessed, looking at thinkers after Descartes as well as the minores, with a focus on two theological themes: the recovery of univocity, and some of the contours of the kind of Christology Descartes’ theory authorizes. The aim of the article, by showing the fruitfulness of an approach that places modern philosophy and theology in conversation, is to ask how a theological reading of Descartes and Cartesian thought may help renew its study.

Authors: Budiana Budiana
Published: December 2020

Today, home industry is part of an economic driver which has a very important position. This causes the village community or village government to create economic business opportunities to meet the needs of their lives. One that is currently up and running is the skin cracker home industry. The development of the skin cracker home industry supports the economy apart from agriculture. If only the economic growth was supported by agriculture, there would certainly be many shortcomings because the available land area was very limited. Economic improvement must be marked by an increase in people's income. This increase in income is certainly helped by the presence of the skin cracker home industry. People can be absorbed into working as casual daily laborers by getting income to meet their daily needs. Therefore, researchers conducted literature studies, interviews and observations about the influence of home industry on increasing the income of the surrounding community. Habit in realizing the independence of village communities. In this study, the research method used is descriptive qualitative in the form of interviews to find data and direct observation. This research is certainly expected to find the influence of home industry and increase in income of the surrounding community in Rancaputat village, Sumberjaya sub-district, Majalengka district.

Este artículo presenta el Análisis de Descargas Parciales empleando Técnicas Neuronales. Las máquinas rotativas empleadas en la industria suelen presentar fallas en los aislamientos causadas por falta de mantenimiento y desconocimiento del estado de los mismos. Es importante la realización de pruebas periódicas y evaluaciones continuas del estado del aislamiento para garantizar el correcto funcionamiento de las máquinas. Uno de los métodos empleados para la detección de estas fallas es el de Descargas Parciales. Las cuales consisten en pequeñas descargas producidas en una porción de gas que queda disuelto en el aceite o dieléctrico que constituye el aislamiento de las máquinas eléctricas. En este trabajo de investigación se realiza un análisis de dos trabajos desarrollados en torno a las descargas parciales, donde se han implementado técnicas de inteligencia artificial. Los resultados mostraron una alta efectividad de las redes neuronales para lograr la clasificación de las descargas parciales y aportar en el mantenimiento de equipos eléctricos de alta potencia.

Gerir emoções no jardim de infância por meio da literatura infantil:
Authors: Mendes Teresa , Mota Paula
Published: December 2020

O desenvolvimento emocional da criança é um dos fatores decisivos para a construção da sua identidade, pelo que quanto mais a criança conseguir identificar e distinguir emoções, exteriorizá-las e regulá-las, mais facilmente se transformará num indivíduo equilibrado e com boa capacidade relacional. O educador de infância deve para isso auxiliar as crianças na construção desse processo identitário e de relação com a alteridade, devendo promover atividades adequadas e estimulantes que proporcionem o seu desenvolvimento emocional. Nesse sentido, pretende-se, na presente comunicação, dar conta de um projeto de investigação-ação, implementado em contexto pré-escolar, e que teve como recurso pedagógico privilegiado o livro de qualidade estética e literária. Os resultados obtidos permitir-nos-ão retirar ilações sobre o projeto implementado e o contributo imediato que o mesmo implicou em termos do desenvolvimento holístico da criança.
Autismo, educação e inclusão
Authors: Ferreira da Cunha Nathalia
Published: December 2020

O autismo é um tema que apresenta uma considerável discussão no universo científico como no ambiente escolar. É uma realidade cada vez mais presente, sendo evidenciada pelos avanços das pesquisas na área, bem como definição de seus diferentes espectros. Através do levantamento do estado da arte sobre o tema do autismo e das políticas públicas, buscou-se compreender como o autismo é classificado, o perfil do autista, os desafios da educação no viés da inclusão e as discussões a nível de políticas públicas que asseguraram os direitos à pessoas com deficiência e autistas no Brasil. Na última década grandes avanços foram obtidos nessa área graças à lei 12764/2012 que trata da Política Nacional de Proteção dos Direitos da Pessoa com Transtorno do Espectro Autista, bem como a lei 13146/2015 que promulgou a  Lei Brasileira de Inclusão da Pessoa com Deficiência (Estatuto da Pessoa com Deficiência). Com avanços quanto às discussões pertinentes à forma como deve se dar o processo de ensino aprendizagem através de ferramentas pedagógicas voltadas a cada especificidade, a presença de mediadores e o processo de tratamento assegurado junto ao serviço público de saúde foram importantes aspectos apontados por essas leis. O processo de inclusão caminha para de fato incluir, bem como incentivar o entendimento da pluralidade e do respeito às diferenças. Este processo ainda não atingiu o seu ideal, assim como a luta daqueles que buscam melhores condições aos autistas não findou, mas as conquistas já representam avanços e melhores entendimentos sobre o assunto.
