No. 54 (2025): Vulnerability: bodies, violence and care from the perspective of Social Sciences and Humanities
The 54th dossier focuses on vulnerability as a situated, contextual, and intersectional condition, allowing us to approach the multiple layers of life in relation to both the human and the non-human. Vulnerability refers us to an ethics of interdependence, which radically diverges from the false autonomy of liberal individualism. It involves understanding subjectivity not as an isolated entity, but as a relation, because we exist insofar as we are affected, exposed to the other and to the world.
For this reason, vulnerability as a social dimension must be understood from a systemic and interdependent perspective (Malgieri, 2023, pp. 4–57) that forces us to reconsider our position in the world and the ways we relate to one another.
