First sentence: To situate this attempt at a problematisation, I would like to set it in the context of a story, a commonplace story like one of those stories that we all know, the only difference being, perhaps, that this one is not about people who are excluded - as per the usual categories - or people with a disability, or about (multiple) drug-addicts, in other words, it is not about any of the categories usually understood as being vulnerable.
