The book aims to analyse the various aspects of a vulnerability that is or should be identified in different legal systems, international law and European and national law. Meanwhile, the central assumption of this book is that vulnerabilities, which are often not visible at first glance, are multi-layered and intersectional and, therefore, require a cross-cutting approach and a step-by-step case study. This can prove challenging for those who create laws and those who implement and enforce them. Readers can learn about other dimensions of vulnerability and other specific actors, such as criminal victims, AI users, public sector users, municipal units and minority shareholders, as well as about the vulnerability of various actors from the perspective of environmental and climate change regulations.
