Abstract [En]: This article provides the framework relating to the use of the legal concept of vulnerability in the EU and CoE regulations, and in the Court of Justice of the EU and European Court of Human Rights case law. The use of the comparative method will allow to grasp the similarities and differences at both the regulatory and jurisprudential levels, helping to identify the different kinds of vulnerabilities more effectively. The comparative findings will further show that a new vulnerability approach may prove to be the trump card to rethink the function of Law not only in regulating the relations between human beings, but also those between human beings and the rest of the ecosystem.
Abstract [It]: Questo articolo fornisce un quadro relativo all’uso del concetto giuridico di vulnerabilità sia all’interno delle principali normative dell’U.E. e del Consiglio d’Europa, sia nei casi analizzati dalla Corte di giustizia dell'UE e dalla Corte europea dei diritti dell'uomo. L’uso del metodo comparativo consente di cogliere analogie e differenze a livello normativo e giurisprudenziale, aiutando ad identificare più efficacemente le diverse tipologie di vulnerabilità. Le risultanze della comparazione dimostrano in maniera evidente come una rinnovata considerazione del fattore relativo alla vulnerabilità possa rivelarsi la carta vincente per ripensare il ruolo stesso del diritto, non solo nel regolare i rapporti tra gli esseri umani, ma anche quelli tra gli esseri umani e il resto dell’ecosistema.
