Synopsis

Social identity is a major social psychological theory of intergroup relations and group processes. Formulated in the early 1970s by the late Henri Tajfel, its central tenet is that group behaviour arises from a shared sense of social category membership, an insight which has led to theoretical advances in social psychology. This book offers a critical description of many of the most important developments by contemporary social identity researchers in Europe, North America and Australia. The first section of the book focuses on cognitive and motivational processes in group behaviour; the second deals with the relationship between identification and regulation of motivational behaviour within the group and the third concentrates on relationships between groups and on social structure.
