Abstract
The society's view of the disabled still constructs it in a different position, even
assuming it is less favorable. This not only seems to be the actualization of the
crisis of the culture of the people's knowledge, but the influence and the structural
polemic. This study aims to explain the existence of Intellectual Disability in
Economic Productivity of Village Tunagrahita in Tanggungrejo, Karangpatihan
Village, Balong District, Ponorogo Regency West Java. This study is a single case
study. Selection of informants selected purposively based on the classification of
sex and status as well as employees of Karangpatihan Urban Village, tourists and
private parties.Data were analyzed with explanatory analysis model. The results
show that the existence of intellectual disability is realized to be responsible for
28
sufficient material and morale needs. Farming is the principal productivity, while
crafting mats, raising and farming as subsistence. The reciprocity is built through
loyalty and integrity to the internal and external Kampung Tunagrahita supported
by the constructive socio-cultural dynamics of the village.The practice of power
based on the experience and knowledge of the people (normal people) by forming
a worldview, classifying, differentiating, labeling (idiot, muddiness/stress), is not
to treat intellectual disability in a position of being isolated, discriminated or
marginalized Its existence can build a culture of religiosity, awareness of
empathy, awareness to help each other, mutual manjaga and tolerate.
