Solidarity in sociology refers to the feeling or condition of unity based on common goals, interests, and sympathies among a group's members. Solidarity refers to the ties in a society - social relations - that bind people to one another.
Some sociologist introduced a more specialised concepts of sociology. Émile Durkheim introduced the terms of mechanical and organic solidarity[1], to illustrate his conception of social evolution (see social darwinism). Mechanical solidarity comes from homogeneity, when people feel connected through similar work, educational and religious training, and lifestyle. Organic solidarity comes from the interdependence that arises from specialization of work. This concept is also related to "Moral Cohesion" which involves the ability for a given society to feel connected due to moral beliefs.
Solidarity is commonly associated with political socialism, being the driving force and defining temperament behind the ideal classless work force.
