The aim of this volume is to open up reflection on the nature of
vulnerability, the responsibilities owed to the vulnerable, who
bears these responsibilities, and how they are best fulfilled. In
canvassing responses to these questions, the contributors engage
with a range of ethical traditions and with issues in contemporary
political philosophy and bioethics. Some essays in the volume
explore the connections between vulnerability, autonomy, dignity,
and justice. Other essays engage with a feminist ethics of care to
articulate the relationship between vulnerability, dependence, and
care. These theoretical approaches are complemented by detailed
examination of vulnerability in specific contexts, including
disability; responsibilities to children; intergenerational
justice; and care of the elderly. The essays thus address
fundamental questions concerning our moral duties to each other as
individuals and as citizens. Contributing significantly to the
development of an ethics of vulnerability, this volume opens up
promising avenues for future research in feminist philosophy, moral
and political philosophy, and bioethics.
