Solidarity and the 'Refugee Crisis' in Europe

New forms of solidarity are being shaped as a response to the European refugee crisis. The statein the form of national governmentshas not been able to implement any viable or sustainable solution to the crisis, but the solidarity movement has been very visible and active in European countries. This book offers a conceptualization of three types of solidarity: autonomous, civic, and institutional solidarity. This framework is applied to three case studies, illustrating the emergence of different forms of solidarity: the City Plaza Hotel in Athens, the Danish friendly neighbors, and Barcelona as refuge city.

Presents a comprehensive analytical model to understand the role of civil society in engaging with the challenges of the refugee crisis Analyzes how the EU as a political actor and the national governments have tried (unsuccessfully) to manage the crisis Provides analytical responses for both scholars and policy makers on how to understand and address the current crisis
