Summary/Abstract: Representations of Endurance, Solidarity and Empathy. We live in a world of high connectivity on multiple levels, making communication and cooperation of central importance to communities across the globe. Unfortunately, recent history has made us witnesses to a heavily unstable political, social and economic climate, in a European and international context. In the light of the most recent events in the global and European history, coping with crises on multiple levels has become crucial. The impact of societal changes accompanied by the dramatic implications of war have brought about significant mutations in the world. The troubled state of nations involved in or threatened by war or natural calamity rests on tension, a feeling of discontent and fear which, in turn, can generate suffering, fragmentation, and even chaos.
