Charity (virtue) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charity_%28virtue%29 In Christian theology charity , or love ( agapē ), means an unlimited loving-kindness toward all others. Some delineate charity to mean only benevolent giving, while others, such as Roman Catholics, have multiple interrelated meanings (i.e. Charity is the theological virtue by which we love God above all things for his own sake, and our neighbor as ourselves for the love of God: New Catholic Catechism 1822)
Compassion personified: a statue at the Epcot center in Florida Compassion is a virtue — one in which the emotional capacities of empathy and sympathy (for the suffering of others) are regarded as a part of love itself, and a cornerstone of greater social interconnection and humanism — foundational to the highest principles in philosophy, society, and personhood . There is an aspect of compassion which regards a quantitative dimension, such that individual's compassion is often given a property of "depth," "vigour," or " passion ." More vigorous than empathy , the feeling commonly gives rise to an active desire to alleviate another's suffering.

Solidarité (notion) - Wikipédia

http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solidarit%C3%A9_(notion) La solidarité est un lien d'engagement et de dépendance réciproques entre des personnes ainsi tenues à l'endroit des autres, généralement des membres d’un même groupe liés par une communauté de destin (famille, village, profession, entreprise, nation, etc.). Dans le cadre juridique , on parle de solidarité chaque fois que plusieurs personnes ont une obligation en commun, qu'il s'agisse d'une dette contractuelle, délictuelle, quasi-délictuelle ou liée à la possession commune d'une chose ou d'un droit (par exemple pour les membres d'une indivision ). La notion de solidarité est donc liée à celle de société, qu'elle soit de droit ou de fait.
