Summary/Abstract: The occasion to create the article became the celebration of the 30th anniversary of the Round Table negotiations and the first partially free elections to the Parliament, which in Gdansk had a special dimension, and 2019 was declared the „Year of Freedom and Solidarity". The author of the article – in the context of the current situation in Poland – would like to recall an attempt at philosophical reflection on the events of 40 years ago – the emergence of „Solidarity", whose author was a Catholic philosopher – Fr. Józef Tischner. His reflections, which took the form of the „Ethics of Solidarity" known in many countries, may – according to the author of the text – be an inspiration for ethical, supra-religious reflection, always having in mind human dignity.
