description | The following introductory article addresses the vulnerability approach towards disasters in the social sciences from different Latin American contemporary perspectives. First of all, the elements that propose a vision about vulnerability and its initial approaches are presented and put into critical dialogue with the resilience approach. Concerns are raised when the resilience of the affected population is emphasized as a mechanism of participation in recovery. Secondly, the contributions of gender studies and the reproduction of life in disaster contexts are addressed. With the advances and documented experiences in the area of gender and disasters considered, a connection between vulnerability and the reproduction and care approach is established with the objective of shedding light on possible alternative routes in the production of knowledge and its influence over policies. Finally, themes for debate and reflection are proposed, attempting to contribute to a discussion that is currently in tension in the academia and in the implementation of public policies or actions executed by international cooperation organisms. |

El presente artículo introductorio propone un acercamiento al enfoque de la vulnerabilidad en los estudios sociales sobre desastres desde distintos abordajes contemporáneos latinoamericanos. En primer lugar, se expone sobre la vulnerabilidad desde sus primeras aproximaciones y se las pone en diálogo crítico con el enfoque de la resiliencia. La preocupación surge cuando se enfatiza la resiliencia de la población afectada como mecanismo de participación en la recuperación. En segundo lugar, se desarrolla con particular atención el aporte de los estudios de género y la reproducción de vida en contextos de desastres. Teniendo en cuenta los avances y experiencias documentadas en el ámbito del género y los desastres, se establece una conexión entre vulnerabilidad y perspectiva de la reproducción y los cuidados con el fin de iluminar posibles vías alternativas en la producción de conocimiento y su influencia sobre las políticas. Finalmente, se proponen líneas de reflexión y debate intentando aportar a una discusión que en la actualidad se encuentra en tensión, tanto desde lo académico como en la puesta en práctica de las políticas públicas o medidas por parte de los organismos de cooperación internacional. Este artigo introdutório propõe uma aproximação ao foco da vulnerabilidade nos estudos sociais sobre desastres desde diferentes abordagens latino-americanas contemporâneas. Em primeiro lugar, são apresentados os elementos que nos propõe o olhar da vulnerabilidade a partir das suas primeiras abordagens e são colocados em um diálogo crítico com a abordagem da resiliência. A preocupação surge quando a resiliência da população afetada é enfatizada como um mecanismo de participação na recuperação. Em segundo lugar, se desenvolve com particular atenção a contribuição dos estudos de gênero e a reprodução da vida em contextos de desastres. Levando em consideração os avanços e as experiências documentadas no campo de gênero e desastres, é estabelecida uma conexão entre vulnerabilidade e perspectiva de reprodução e cuidado, a fim de iluminar possíveis caminhos alternativos na produção de conhecimento e sua influência sobre as políticas. Por fim, são propostas linhas de reflexão e debate buscando contribuir a uma discussão atualmente sob tensão, tanto academicamente quanto na implementação de políticas ou medidas públicas por organizações de cooperação internacional.
