The Social Psychology of Group Cohesiveness: From Attraction to Social IdentityA tour de force. As a comprehensive review, it stands out as a unique resource not matched by any recent treatment of the group literature.--Marilyn Brewer, Professor of Psychology, University of California, Los Angeles. This advanced-level textbook analyzes how social psychology conceptualizes group cohesiveness and solidarity. Since 1950, the dominant perspective on this topic has been exposed through the concept of group cohesiveness: a concept tied to interpersonal processes among small interactive aggregates of people. Although repeatedly challenged, this perspective still thrives. |
