The notion of solidarity is often invoked in a wide range of public discourses. Yet, it is not clear what it entails. What exactly is the concept of solidarity and what does it mean to 'act in solidarity with others'?
Our panel will reflect on the idea of solidarity in their research. Drawing on feminist foreign policy, risk/threat perception, and art practices that allow anti-identarian practices of ‘being-in-common', we put solidarity at the centre of our conversation with the aim of better understanding what it means and whether it can help us in the project of re-imagining communities in a post pandemic world.
