Abstract

The social psychology of intergroup relations deals with those psychological processes underlying phenomena such as stereotypes, prejudice and discrimination. Research on this field has produced a wide range of explicative models. Some of them focus on motivational processes, while others exclusively deal with cognitive mechanisms. Some theories make special emphasis on intra-individual variables, while others highlight the role of contextual factors in the emergence of intergroup hostility. Currently, research combines cognitive-motivational explanations, and different levels of analysis. Yet, this literature shows a) a lack of general theories able to integrate the large amount of empirical research amassed up till now, and b) a lack of research carried out in (and from) Asia, Africa and Latin America.
