The author casts a retrospective glance on move recent results of research, which shook unbalanced structure of the construction of "mental retardation". He discusses some problems of rehabilitation of mentally retarded people in nursing homes (several years of hospitalisation, different degrees of impairment, scarce contacts to networks outside nursing homes). He comprises the pros and cons of popular ideology of rehabilitation and goes into details of social support of mentally retarded people. The author recapitulates, that work with mentally retarded people finds itself in an unbalanced situation between obstructive (complex care with conventional methods) and advanced forces (as to the rehabilitation of the education of patients).
