Abstract

The paper discusses the role of solidarity in post-conventional society
and shows how solidarity is intertwined with the concept of individual autonomy
and its guarantee through fundamental rights. The starting point will be offered by two mental experiments introduced by Joel Feinberg and Eamonn Callann;
further we shall consider the definition of solidarity given by Jürgen Habermas
and Axel Honneth; finally some remarks on the concept of individual autonomy
shall be discussed.
