Abstract

The article is an attempt at a phenomenology of solidarity as a social phenomenon. The author differentiates subjective and intersubjective solidarization, and he emphasizes that the latter concerns the process of the constituting of a group. The article is divided into three main parts. In the first part, so-called bridge problem is analysed. The problem concerns a justificatory transition of the analysis from subjective solidarization to the intersubjective one. A point of departure are here theories of Ingarden and Father Tischner. Next, the author presents a description of the structure and elements of solidarity as elements of a complex act. At this basis, the author formulates an outline of an alternative approach to solidarity, namely as the constituting groups, and as a relation to the world as a common world.

Keywords:
