In so doing, I challenge Andrea Sangiovanni’s recent attempt to develop a single, overarching definition of solidarity\u2015as \u201ca joint action against (some) significant adversity\u201d (2024). Sangiovanni argues that all historically paradigmatic cases of solidarity, such as Bourgeois\u2019 solidarism, Durkheim\u2019s organic solidarity, nationalist solidarity, Christian solidarity, and the solidarity of social movements, have an \u201cunderlying unity\u201d and can be translated into this basic antagonistic formula. While the philosophical endeavor of developing a unified framework for solidarity is captivating, I contend that we should embrace the diversity of solidarity since each account points out distinct possibilities and challenges calling for different strategies to create and foster solidarity. Thus, the paper highlights (and reconstructs) a significant strand in the history of solidarity literature that posits solidarity as emerging from cooperative actions and interactions among individuals and groups (Durkheim, the French Solidarists such as L\u00e9on Bourgeois and Alfred Fouill\u00e9e, Hegel, Marx, J\u00f3zef Tischner, and Rawls). Overall, my aim will be to challenge the prevailing emphasis on antagonistic theories of solidarity within recent scholarship and to bring forth the unique characteristics of cooperative (harmonious) approaches to solidarity.<\/p>\n This event is funded by Portuguese national funds through FCT – Funda\u00e7\u00e3o para a Ci\u00eancia e a Tecnologia, I.P., within the project UID\/00310, Centro de Filosofia da Universidade de Lisboa.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Tu\u011fba Sevin\u00e7 Kadir Has University Solidarity: A defense of its plurality 7 October 2025, 17h00 (Lisbon Time \u2014 GMT+1) Sala Mattos Rom\u00e3o (Room C201.J \u2013 Department of Philosophy) School of Arts and Humanities \u2013 University of Lisbon Abstract In this talk I will discuss two distinct accounts on the emergence and cultivation of solidarity: […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"activitypub_content_warning":"","activitypub_content_visibility":"","activitypub_max_image_attachments":4,"activitypub_interaction_policy_quote":"","activitypub_status":"federate","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3282","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/cful.letras.ulisboa.pt\/praxis\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3282","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/cful.letras.ulisboa.pt\/praxis\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/cful.letras.ulisboa.pt\/praxis\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cful.letras.ulisboa.pt\/praxis\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cful.letras.ulisboa.pt\/praxis\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3282"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/cful.letras.ulisboa.pt\/praxis\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3282\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3291,"href":"https:\/\/cful.letras.ulisboa.pt\/praxis\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3282\/revisions\/3291"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/cful.letras.ulisboa.pt\/praxis\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3282"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cful.letras.ulisboa.pt\/praxis\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3282"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cful.letras.ulisboa.pt\/praxis\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3282"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}![\"\"](\"https:\/\/cful.letras.ulisboa.pt\/praxis\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2025\/09\/Praxis-Seminar-2025-26-S1-Tugba-Sevinc-724x1024.jpg\")
