Abstract
The idea of solidarity has many facets, and several concepts, drawn from philosophy, sociology, economics, law and religion, can be invoked to explain it (Villa, 1998). Among these concepts are cooperation, loyalty, membership, mutuality, reciprocity, unity, brotherhood and so on. All these concepts relate to the social order and are aimed at improving social cooperation. Especially after the French Revolution, solidarity has been connected with two other principles of democratic societies, namely freedom and equality. hi contemporary societies, market economy relates to freedom (e.g., freedom of employers), while representative democracy relates to equality (e.g., of citizenship). Social solidarity is, therefore, a very scarce resource and its meaning changes with historical periods, crossing other words of the political vocabulary, such as equality, freedom, justice, self-interest, altruism etc.
