  • Women, Organizations and Vulnerability : Global Archetypes
    Women, Organizations and Vulnerability : Global Archetypes

    Research demonstrates that women are not vulnerable, per se.Women generally show a high degree of social resilience, adaptation, and adaptability, but intersectional organizational practices make them vulnerable.Women’s vulnerability is not a neutral concept but is organizationally defined and understood. Organizations are discursive spaces where women’s vulnerability is constructed and reproduced as a communicative act and event.We often represent vulnerability at individual or organizational levels, but not both.Women’s vulnerability reminds us of the pervasive interconnectedness of personal and organizational life events.Experiencing women’s organizational vulnerability is common.However, is women’s vulnerability publicly represented, defined, felt, and acted upon in the same way everywhere?This book is focussed on comparing women’s organizational vulnerability practices making a significant contribution to reflection, theory, methods and cross-disciplinary expertise.The process of making sense of “vulnerability” is extremely diverse and intersectionally constructed through gender, culture and organizational discourses, which demands complex, innovative and non-Eurocentric methodological paradigms and approaches.This book satisfies these demands by integrating contributions from a diverse range of disciplines, academic traditions and cases and provides an understanding of women’s vulnerability as a global phenomenon that comprises both cultural and organizational contexts. By examining how publicly and organizationally women’s develop particular and creative strategies to navigate vulnerability, the book significantly contributes towards identifying archetypical practices for negotiating vulnerability in different contexts.

  • Vulnerability : Governing the Social Through Security Politics
    Vulnerability : Governing the Social Through Security Politics

    What does it mean to be ‘vulnerable’? Exploring the rise of ‘vulnerability’ as an organising concept in migration detention, integration, public health, national security and social policy, this volume reveals the blurring of welfare state logics with national security ends.Governments and international agencies use the language of vulnerability to identify needy constituents and communities, but also to frame that need as potentially dangerous.Using international case studies this book shows how vulnerability governance permeates policy sectors – transforming the methods used to govern, problematise and resolve – bringing questions of risk management and security into social policy, but simultaneously brings social policy sectors into counterterrorism delivery.The combination of welfare state and security logics brings interventions deeper into societies, securitising communities and individuals on account of their needs, governing the social through security politics. -- .

  • Vulnerability in Resistance
    Vulnerability in Resistance

    Vulnerability and resistance have often been seen as opposites, with the assumption that vulnerability requires protection and the strengthening of paternalistic power at the expense of collective resistance.Focusing on political movements and cultural practices in different global locations, including Turkey, Palestine, France, and the former Yugoslavia, the contributors to Vulnerability in Resistance articulate an understanding of the role of vulnerability in practices of resistance.They consider how vulnerability is constructed, invoked, and mobilized within neoliberal discourse, the politics of war, resistance to authoritarian and securitarian power, in LGBTQI struggles, and in the resistance to occupation and colonial violence.The essays offer a feminist account of political agency by exploring occupy movements and street politics, informal groups at checkpoints and barricades, practices of self-defense, hunger strikes, transgressive enactments of solidarity and mourning, infrastructural mobilizations, and aesthetic and erotic interventions into public space that mobilize memory and expose forms of power.Pointing to possible strategies for a feminist politics of transversal engagements and suggesting a politics of bodily resistance that does not disavow forms of vulnerability, the contributors develop a new conception of embodiment and sociality within fields of contemporary power.

  • Attentiveness to Vulnerability
    Attentiveness to Vulnerability

    This book is an attempt to develop a dialogue between the philosophy of Emmanuel Levinas, Jean Porter's Thomistic theory of the natural law, and the virtue of solidarity as expressed in Catholic Social Teaching.It seeks to explore the implications that such a dialogue would have for our understanding of moral reasoning.Attentiveness to Vulnerability rests on the hypothesis that it is possible to develop a set of robust links between these thinkers and bodies of thought--markedly different as they are in terms of philosophical disposition and framework.Such links specify the ethical implications of Levinas' thought and develop Porter's theory in an original way.This work requires further specification through a developed anthropology, which allows for expansion within the tradition of Catholic theological ethics.The inclusion of Levinas and a focus on the virtue of solidarity allows for an advancement of virtue theory and theological ethics, to the extent that the virtue of solidarity becomes a key aspect of any ethical reasoning. ""In a clearly written and carefully developed dialogue, Daniel Fleming probes the relationship between Emmanuel Levinas, Jean Porter, and the virtue of Solidarity.This significant study offers a richer account of the person as relational and of 'flourishing' in virtue ethics.We are indebted to Fleming for refining our attentiveness to the vulnerability of, and our solidarity with, the Other as factors integral to moral judgment and virtuous actions.""Thomas Ryan, SM, is an Honorary Fellow of the Australian Catholic University. ""Attentiveness to Vulnerability makes a valuable and distinctive contribution to moral philosophy and theology by drawing together the natural law theory of Jean Porter, the thought of Emmanuel Levinas, and Catholic social teaching on the virtue of solidarity.By exploring these links, Fleming deepens our awareness of the ways solidarity springs from attentiveness to vulnerability, especially through his proposal to re-conceive the 'preferential option for the poor' as a 'preferential option for the vulnerable.'""--Robert Gascoigne, Emeritus Professor, School of Theology, Australian Catholic UniversityDaniel J.Fleming leads ethics and formation for St Vincent's Health Australia, the country's largest Catholic healthcare provider.He is also a senior lecturer in theology and ethics and Honorary Research Associate with the Sydney College of Divinity.

  • Policing Encounters with Vulnerability
    Policing Encounters with Vulnerability

    This edited collection brings together scholars and practitioners to consider the ways in which policing organisations approach vulnerability and the strategies they develop to reduce victims, offenders and police officers’ susceptibility to increased harm.Based on their work with policing services, the public criminologists and critical policing scholars collected together in this edited volume consider vulnerability in terms of people, processes, and institutional practices.While more attention is being paid to some experiences of vulnerability — particularly at the later stages of the criminal justice process — this collection will be the first to focus on the specific issues faced by policing services as the front end of criminal justice.The case studies of vulnerability in each chapter offer the reader new insights into the operational concerns in working with vulnerable people (including vulnerable police officers).This collection is ideally suited for scholars of applied criminal justice studies (including policing studies), police recruits and officers in training, and policing practitioners such as policy and program development officers.

  • Posthumanist Vulnerability : An Affirmative Ethics
    Posthumanist Vulnerability : An Affirmative Ethics

    A timely dethroning of the human subject and embracing of a new kind of existence, in this book Christine Daigle highlights the affirmative potential of vulnerability amidst unprecedented times of more-than-human crises.By bringing together traditions as diverse as feminist materialist philosophy, phenomenology, and affect theory, Daigle convincingly pleas for the radical embracing of a shared posthumanist vulnerability. Posthuman Vulnerability fills a significant theoretical gap - whilst feminism has explored the affirming power of vulnerability, it's been from a very human-centric viewpoint.In posing a feminist and posthuman take on vulnerability, Daigle is bridging traditions in a totally original and much needed way.
