Reflections on solidarity

That solidarity has to do with “the filthy lucre” is not so obvious, yet the term comes from solidum, money that was paid to professional fighters, the “soldiers”. Paying in solidum still characterizes, in the legal sphere, a bond of interdependence between debtors.

The word, during the French Revolution, expands the boundaries of its meaning to reach the ethical horizon of solidarity, which indicates closeness and sharing.
