Abstract
<jats:p xml:lang="en">The volume includes a series of reflections – with a marked interdisciplinary character – on the current legal status of the principle of solidarity. In each of the contributions included in the book the authors investigate, based on different perspectives, whether the principle of solidarity today influences the relations occurring among the members of the different human communities, and, consequently, whether and to what extent the relevant legal orders give concrete realization to the value of solidarity. The theme of solidarity is in particular addressed under the perspectives of its interconnection with the social contract, of the fiscal aspect, as well as of international law, with a special focus on human rights.</jats:p>
