Abstract
The Article L. 1111-6-1 of the French code of Public Health Regulations was created by the law of February 11th, 2005 for equal rights and opportunities, as well as for the involvement and citizenship of persons with disabilities. It allows a person with long-lasting inability to independently carry out activities prescribed by her physician – inability due to functional limitations in the use of upper limbs – to design a caregiver (professional or not) to accomplish those acts on her behalf. From the day of its coming into force, this article has been prone to controversies around its interpretation. However, such controversies do not necessarily directly include persons with disabilities and may level ethical and power relations’ issues that exist in various spaces of interdisciplinary debate.
