التنظيم القانوني لالتزامات ولي ذوي الاحتياجات الخاصة

Abstract EN

Every individual in society has his own existence and legal personality and thus has the right toact freely without being controlled by anyone.

However, having some special circumstances distinguishingsome individuals from others, like a disability or conditions rendering them unequalto others in terms of physical or mental abilities necessitates having someone to take care of themand their property as they are incapable of satisfying the needs that ensure their continuity in life byrelying on themselves solely.

Furthermore, they may be unable to express their feelings and desires, which requires having someone to take care of their issues and dealings on their behalf to ensure adignified life and protection for them.

Both jurisprudence and law have agreed on one way to accomplishthat, that is guardianship: a system whereby the ward is granted solid protection and isqualified legally.

In order to answer these questions, this paper was divided intothree sections.
