Introduction. The Challenges of Vulnerability in Today’s World: An Interdisciplinary Approach

Abstract

The current dossier is a true exercise of interdisciplinary effort. It includes philosophical, sociological, educational, psychological, anthropological, and ethical aspects, among others. In short, we understand that the main contribution of this monograph is to look, from different visions and areas, at the anatomy of one of the most intrinsically human realities (sometimes certainly uncomfortable): vulnerability, its angles, and its edges.
