Call for Abstracts: 22nd Intergroup Meeting in and around Jena "NATIONAL IDENTIY: ITS NATURE, CAUSES, AND CONSEQUENCES"
Dear colleagues and friends,
In this meeting we will discuss theoretical approaches and ongoing empirical work on what makes national group identities (e.g., language, culture, essentialized categorization, glorification, narcissism, national ideological polarization, etc.) unique. We will also examine the determinants of national identification (e.g., economic competition, values threats etc.) and its consequences (e.g., societal solidarity, national cohesion) within and between groups (e.g., prejudice, preference for national to international policies). Finally, we will also focus on attempts to compare different identities to better understand the unique features that link national identity and nationalism.
When: June 30th - July 2nd 2022
