SOLIDARITY IN EUROPE: THE HISTORY OF AN IDEA

"Solidarity in Europe is a comprehensive study of the idea of solidarity from the early nineteenth century to the present day. It covers social and political theory, Protestant and Catholic social ethics, and the development of the concept of solidarity in eight European nations - Germany, United Kingdom, France, Italy, Spain, Sweden, Norway, and Denmark. Steinar Stjerno examines how solidarity has been defined, and how this definition has changed since the early nineteenth century."--Jacket.
