Innovational Technologies Individual Capital Investing: Volunteer Activities of Motor Impaired Persons
In this article the results of volunteer activities investigation are described. It made from P. Bourdieu theory view and some ideas of I. Goffman. It is known that society excludes those people who are not typical. It does through stigmatizing not typical members and knowing them like “ others”. It’ will be easier to know ‘other’ if he (or she) has visual differences. The object of the investigation were invalids who use for moving a special carriage. The subject was a process of social moving in social space. We supposed that individual capitals (not only economical but cultural and social too) are reduced because of their physical condition. More of this society builds social barriers troubling normal everyday life and inclusion to social nets. We demonstrate a role of social movements helping invalids to include to volunteer community and making social nets opened for them. In this nets they accumulate, exchange and invest their capitals through the social technologies. To our mind volunteer activities (in our case closed to labor therapy) become one of the most effective social technologies for including to society and realizing individual capitals. Empirical part took place in the summer of 2015.There were interviewed 19 persons who use for moving a carriage for invalids. All of them have had an experience of volunteer activities during Olympics and Paralympics games in 2014 to Sochi. Over the interview we had got qualitative data made our propositions confirmed. Those invalids who have worked as volunteer were enjoyed with their labor. They had got new knowledge, new friends, social and emotional resources for future social moving.
