Resumen

Una vez más, el concepto de vulnerabilidad está asumiendo un rol central en el discurso ético-político-jurídico. Es el caso tanto en sus reinterpretaciones neoliberales, dirigidas a hacer recaer las responsabilidades y consecuencias de la vulnerabilidad sobre el propio sujeto vulnerable, y, por el contrario, en las tesis –resultado, en gran medida, de una reelaboración de la ética del cuidado– de autoras como Martha Fineman, Judith Butler, Martha Nussbaum, Catriona Mackenzie y otros, que usan la idea de vulnerabilidad como base para refundar y reorganizar políticas liberales, desembarazándolas de conceptos ficticios como la supuesta autonomía básica del ser humano. Este artículo se propone analizar los diferentes significados e implicaciones que, debido a la acentuación de diferentes aspectos de la vulnerabilidad, se suman para producir un concepto tan polifacético; y ello, para intentar aclarar las implicaciones conceptuales y consecuencias prácticas que la vulnerabilidad puede generar.
