Abstract

In this essay, the life history of the leader, Ebru BUE ERKMEN, of AIDA (Aide et Insertion des Demandeurs d'Asile) is analyzed. AIDA is an association that works to provide support for asylum seekers in Lille, France. Lille is on the frontier of France and Belgium and it is also at the center of Europe. By considering the life history of the leader of this group as divulged in a personal interview, we can see many ways that active support for refugees has been provided in Lille. It is also possible to understand the group leader's focus in life and her commitment to a form of solidarity that resists the institutional and which encapsulates the "Spiritual Engagement," the personal social commitment, that she espouses herself.
