Abstract	Rittel and Webber (1973) wrote, "The search for scientific bases for confronting problems of social policy is bound to fail, because the nature of these problems. They are 'wicked' problems, whereas science has developed to deal with 'tame problems'" (p. 155). Thus, a wicked problem is one where the solution is bound up in its formulation and the context of the problem militates against its formation. Inclusion of students with disabilities in general education fits the definition of a wicked problem. Current definitions describe disability through the medical or science-based model, implying that problems can or should be addressed through diagnosis and prescriptive cure. Defining disability this way led to the development of diagnostic categories in special education. Thus, the ever-expanding categorical specialization within special education poses a direct challenge to inclusive systems of support. This article is based on "Equity as a Basis for Inclusive Educational Systems Change" by Wayne Sailor in the "Australasian Journal of Special Education."
