2.1. NOCIONES GENERALES
Desde mediados del siglo XIX la solidaridad ha sido entendida como un elemen-
to necesario en los sistemas democráticos, considerándose como un principio gene-
ral de acción política que ha ejercido una evolución esencial en los ordenamientos
jurídicos y en las instituciones, contribuyendo a crear nuevos parámetros de redis-
tribución de la riqueza. La solidaridad es un principio que ha tenido una menor
relevancia dogmática que otros como la igualdad y la libertad115. El principio de
solidaridad siempre ha adolecido de cierta indeterminación en la configuración de
su contenido, utilizándose más como una técnica jurídica que como un principio
fundamental del ordenamiento jurídico.
Podemos afirmar que el principio de solidaridad se ha convertido en un valor
de referencia más allá del carácter ideológico, entendiéndose como una referencia
axiológica, que podría ser reivindicada desde diferentes posicionamientos116, según
