Acknowledgements

This book has developed out of a seminar on vulnerability in Scandinavia organized by Adriana Margareta Dancus in Kristiansand in December 2017.

Our many thanks go also to the interdisciplinary research programme Engaging Vulnerability at Uppsala University. Their generous funding made it possible for the editors to have optimal contact in the last
