In this timely book, Ruud ter Meulen argues that the current trend
towards individual financial responsibility for health and social
care should not be at the expense of the welfare of vulnerable and
dependent individuals. Written with a multidisciplinary
perspective, the book presents a new view of solidarity as a
distinct concept from justice with respect to health and social
care. It explains the importance of collective responsibility and
takes the debate on access to healthcare beyond the usual framework
of justice and rights. Academics from a range of backgrounds,
including sociology, ethics, philosophy and policy studies will
find new perspectives on solidarity and fresh ideas from other
disciplines. Policymakers will better appreciate the contribution
of family carers to the well-being of dependent and vulnerable
people, and the importance of the support of solidarity in these
types of care.
