Hugo Capellà I Miternique et al., « De-marginalising Social-Democracy: The Recovery of Collectivity in Europe During Covid-19 Pandemic », HAL-SHS : géographie, ID : 10.1007/978-3-031-11139-6_3
The health crisis linked to the COVID-19 pandemic has revealed the existence of different cultural points of view in Europe with respect to the importance of life as an individual/private or collective/public priority. This is particularly apparent when we examine the nature of access to the European’s Union Economic programs to address the pandemic’s effects. In addition, this pandemic has also helped to de-marginalise a complex European model based on diversity. The recovery of the collectivity to face COVID-19 in the European Recovery Plan has permitted a consideration of the differences and diversity side of marginalisation. In the European Union context we deal with two opposed systems. On the one hand we have the Mediterranean fraternal cultural tradition based on an external collective responsibility with its Catholic roots. On the other hand we have a Northern European tradition based on the inner individual responsibility with its Protestant roots. Those two standpoints have brought to the fore internal frictions when we seek to find common principles to guide programs to address the pandemic’s effects in the European Union.
