- Abstract
This text aims to show the relationship between the experiences of recognition of people with disabilities and their achievement in the configuration of independent lifestyles. We turn to the hermeneutic method and to the analysis under the postulates of grounded theory and content analysis. The development of self-confidence, self-respect and self-esteem as practical purposes of recognition are found to promote independent lifestyles in people with disabilities. It is also found that these people have experiences called enemies of recognition, which places them at a disadvantage in achieving autonomy and independence. It is important to reflect on the concepts of disability in order to transcend the view of charity and facilitate independent living.
