Vulnerability, Resistance, Pandemic, Imagery, Body.Abstract
The text proposes a reflection on the covid-19 pandemic in the light of the problem of vulnerability. The relevance of diagnoses on the unequal distribution of vulnerability and necropolitics is discussed, as comprehensive keys to our historical reality. The argument that the epidemic was constituted as a historical landmark of a civilizing moral progress is offered. Finally, the text insists on the vulnerability and renewed value of protecting and supporting bodies, as problems whose ethical meaning depends on their conversion into policies and imageries of equality.
