Vulnerability is a concept that stems from ethics and legal theory. It has progressively gained momentum in international human rights law, in particular in the European contextof the European Court of Human Rights adjudications. Also, the European Union is sensitive to it.By the introduction of competences in the Area of Freedom, Security and Justice (AFSJ) we are witnessing a progressive “vulnerabilisation” of EU law. This article intends in the first place to outline such a problematic notion and then to highlight the normative effects of vulnerability. In particular, this article will put forward the argument that such notion could serve to revamp the profile of “justice” of the AFSJ, which has been neglected so far, calling for the development of a more sophisticated ethics of State duties

脆弱性作为在 AFSJ 内容纳“正义”的规范论点

脆弱性是一个源于伦理和法律理论的概念。它在国际人权法中逐渐获得动力，特别是在欧洲人权法院裁决的欧洲范围内。此外，欧盟对此很敏感。通过引入自由、安全和正义领域 (AFSJ) 的权限，我们正在目睹欧盟法律逐渐“脆弱化”。本文首先打算概述这样一个有问题的概念，然后强调脆弱性的规范影响。特别是，本文将提出这样的论点，即这种概念可能有助于改变迄今为止被忽视的 AFSJ 的“正义”形象，呼吁发展更复杂的国家义务伦理。
