The European Commission has claimed that 'Solidarity is part of how
European society works...'. But how are we to understand
solidarity, and what are its implications to Government policy?
Promoting Solidarity in the European Union addresses the question
of what solidarity might mean today and its relevance to the
purposes of the European Union and the way it functions. Is
solidarity just a slogan or can it have meaningful legal and policy
content? This book brings together contributions from leading
scholars in law, politics and sociology to discuss an idea that is
coming under fresh scrutiny at a time when the EU's direction
following the implementation of the Lisbon Treaty is hotly debated.
The authors engage with both the content and limitations of
solidarity as a concept in political and legal debate, and its
application to specific fields such as migration, education and
pensions policies.
Promoting Solidarity in the European Union provides a thoughtful
and provocative analysis of the power and potential of solidarity,
applying a sceptical and rigorous assessment of the conditions
necessary for it to make a difference to the European political and
legal space at a time when traditional manifestations of national
solidarity (e.g. in health care) are perceived to be under threat
from EU market liberalization policies. A number of contributions
consider whether an EU concept of solidarity is possible and how
that might affect the balance between market and social priorities
for the Union's future.
If the EU is to be more than just a market, promoting solidarity as
a value and a principle has a key role. This rich collection of
essays explores how solidarity might fulfil its status as a core
value for the Union.
