In this book, Gerard J. Ryan examines the interrelationship between
recognition theory and theology with their respective concerns for
what it means to be a human. He advocates a mutual accompaniment
that reformulates recognition theory within a practical and public
theology. Ryan develops this interpersonal recognition through the
accompaniment of vulnerable people, particularly persons with
disabilities and those who suffer from mental illness. He explores
three contexts that support this mutual accompaniment and the
labour of recognition. These are narrativity, the stories we live
out of; vulnerability, the basic human condition common to all; and
participation, the inter-relationship of humanity.
