A PSYCHOLOGICAL PERSPECTIVE ON HUMAN VULNERABILITY - THEORETICAL CONSIDERATIONS AND EMPIRICAL PROOFS

Summary/Abstract: The purpose of this article is to provide a psychological perspective on the state of vulnerability, presented as an inherent characteristic of the human condition. Terminology benchmarks are set at the beginning, highlighting the transdisciplinarity of the concept and identifying the main sources and categories of vulnerability. Then, the vulnerability, the pain, and the suffering are analyzed in various fields of psychology (clinical psychology, social psychology, psychoanalysis). The end of the article is a pleading for vulnerability, articulated around three myths, each of them being an argument in favor of the need of vulnerability in the human existence.
