solidarities
- 1Plural of solidarity.
The book traces the rival solidarities that shaped postwar labor politics.
Local solidarities often outlast the campaigns that first created them.
Note
A plural only one meaning of solidarity allows: the countable bond that unites a group around a common goal or against a common enemy. Solidarity as one person's willingness to stand by another is uncountable, and Solidarity, the Polish labor movement, is a name. The plural is for several coexisting or competing bonds (rival solidarities, local solidarities), a usage most at home in sociological writing.
