Abstract

This paper argues in favour of introducing solidarity into economics as a new analytical category of human motivation which encompasses all forms of other-regarding behaviour (e.g. utilitarian altruism, evolved natural sympathy, Kantian imperatives) but which, additionally, can be refined so as to account for moves and motives which existing categories fail to envelop.
