| Summary: | This article aims to pay tribute to the figure of Professor Javier de Lucas by using his book Mediterráneo: el naufragio de Europaas the guiding thread through his vast and rigorous bibliography on human displacement, asylum, and social integration of migrants. For this purpose, reference is made to a key concept in his career: solidarity, understood as a joint awareness of rights and duties that arise from the existence of common needs as a response to the constant construction of otherness and states of exception and para-legality. The professor predicted the current regressive human rights policies in the European Union and, in particular, those related to migration and asylum. His work allows us to better understand the institutional and cultural racism under which migration strategies are drawn in our continent.
