We are publishing a pair of articles from our current magazine on Solidarity and Alienation, that go together well. “We can bring to birth a new world from the ashes of the old, Solidarity forever.” The experience of solidarity is familiar to every working person. Solidarity is the unexpected help from a friend you didn’t know you had; it’s a co-worker covering for you when the boss comes around; and it’s when you pitch in to help a friend in need, even when you’re struggling yourself.
