Universalism is an important feature of solidaristic institutions that meet basic needs. But #solidarity takes place at more levels. I’ll say more about this in my forthcoming book “States of Care”. More on the three tiers of solidarity: cambridge.org/core/books/sol… /1

Replying to @benwansell
In my 3rd Reith Lecture I emphasise universalism when it comes to solidarity, in terms of feeling like one another & spending money on each another. This is about binding richer people as well as poorer people into the welfare state, a la Beveridge. 2/n bbc.co.uk/programmes/m001t9f…
