Vulnerability and Courage examines the influence of poverty on the experience of self among adolescents. It explores psychosocial and theological aspects of poverty and alienation from ontological and existential perspectives. Although poverty and alienation are typically considered from sociological or ethical perspectives, this book focuses on the psychosocial mechanisms that impact character and identity formation and on their pastoral theological implications. To this end, Vulnerability and Courage examines Erich Fromms discourses on an inauthentic pseudoself as well as Erik Eriksons view on an individuals identity formation. In addition, it points to the innately existential impact of the experience of poverty by means of Paul Tillichs ontological understanding of alienation. The main theme is that psychological and existential perspectives on poverty enrich discourses on alienation as a window through which we can see the multilayered structure or mechanism of economic vulnerability, a structure that through various means can hugely influence ones life.
