Description
Originally published in 1996, Social Groups and Identities brought together the latest ideas of a distinguished set of authors, all of whom worked with Henri Tajfel in Bristol. Each had been profoundly influenced by Tajfel, an influence which encouraged a diversity of approaches, as well as the development of social identity theory itself.
Students, academics and professionals will find in this book the living debate around the developing ideas which are Tajfel's legacy. It is also a fitting tribute to Henri Tajfel, which acknowledges and builds on his major contribution to social psychology in Europe.
Today it can be read in its historical context.
