Abstract
This paper explores the place EU solidarity occupies inside labour relations. The first part scrutinizes the context in which in the EU solidarity can be developed: Solidarity between workers has national roots. At the Eu Institutional level this is limited to the European Social dialogue. The second part explores the new roads opened facing restructurings: new forms of collective actions through EWC, initiatives of the EU Commission, the Anti globalisation Fund. If new roads are open, the situation is therefore limited for European Solidarity.
Keywords: European Social Policy, European works councils, restructurings, European Social Dialogue
