This essential book shows how solidarity may be - should be - conceived as a normative principle with pressing legal content, instrumental to the realisation of the social ends of today's democratic polities.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e The author, for the first time in such depth, documents the interweaving of legal norms with social ideas and values, focusing on the use of the principle of solidarity in the European Union's bodies and in its Member States. There are detailed examinations of how the principle appears in such realms as the following: \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e national constitutions;\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ewelfare systems;\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eregulation of contracts;\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003esocial effects of legal rules;\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ewomen's rights;\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ethe social market economy;\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ethe social doctrine of the Catholic Church;\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eaffirmation of corporate social responsibility; and\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003esustainability and corporate governance.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e The author describes how each context contributes to a meaningful elaboration of the concept of solidarity, thus synthesising and extending prior work on the subject.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e Following Kant's dictum that the solidarity of mankind is a 'to be or not to be; a matter of life or death', in today's difficult and calamitous times it is appropriate to rethink the principle of solidarity as the reason for living, living fully and not just surviving, in a social agglomeration we call a community. Decoding solidarity, in order to fully understand its potentialities, misrepresentations, and mystifications has therefore become a task entrusted to jurists. For this reason, this matchless book will prove invaluable for lawyers, judges, and policymakers, all of whose professions demand authoritative knowledge of the legal relations among individuals and among legal entities.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 202\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.5 x 9.21 x 6.14 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e May 30, 2023\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47377468883122,"sku":"9789403535968","price":190.89,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0770\/3891\/1666\/files\/HAQjrlBAxv9789403535968.webp?v=1783057099","url":"https:\/\/box.dadyminds.org\/products\/solidarity-a-normative-principle-hardcover","provider":"DADYMINDS BOX","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
