Résumé : “Solidarity” is one of the most common and most contested concepts inscholarship on the European Union. The idea has been investigated byhistorians, legal scholars, philosophers, ethicists, and social scientists.Although empirical studies of solidarity among European publics areincreasing, especially on issues such as sharing fiscal resources andregulating immigration, we know less about other types, such as providingmilitary assistance to other EU nations, an issue raised by the Russianinvasions of Ukraine. We examine EU citizens’ reaction to solidarity onfiscal and military policy, drawing from a 2020 survey of eight memberstates. The considerable diversity of opinion on both issues is explained byreligious affiliation and observance, socioeconomic status, evaluation ofnational and EU institutions, as well as ideology and values. The influencesin each instance are similar, but by no means identical, suggesting that thesources of support for transnational solidarity vary by policy area.
