Summary: | Vulnerability is commonly understood as a weakness arising from the characteristics of particular types of individuals. In this article, the experience of people living with a chronic disease, mental health disorder or disability will be analyzed within the framework of a sociology of daily life (Berger and Luckmann, 1966). In a first step, this work will make it possible to explain what knowledge derived from ordinary life experiences is, and the specificities of knowledge derived from (rarer) experiences. In a second step, the production of experiential knowledge will be explained and the reasons for the difficult construction of intersubjectivity between those living ordinary experiences and those concerned by rare experiences will be explained. The third part of this article will show the possibility of producing knowledge that is neither objective nor subjective, but rather peer-objective. A definition of the concepts of peerjective and peerjectivity will be established.
