Are Education Professionals always vectors of solidarity-based social protection systems?

Teachers are a ‘homogeneous’ socioprofessional category, which is organised and open to involvement and the promotion of a shared interest. They are an essential component of civil society on the edge or at the heart of the public sector. Whether or not they are integrated into the public sector, they share values: promotion of individuals, the emancipation and elevation of individuals, and social well-being. All of these elements are aspects which make teachers naturally open to mutual solidarity. They can fully assess the advantage of the mutual organisation as a complementary element to government social action or as a substitute for failing public authorities. They can ‘incarnate’ solidarity and reconstruct social links
