Reseña del libro "Intergroup Conflict And Cooperation: The Robbers Cave Experiment (en Inglés)"
Intergroup Conflict and Cooperation: The Robbers Cave Experiment is a book written by the renowned social psychologist, Muzafer Sherif. The book provides a detailed account of the famous Robbers Cave experiment conducted in 1954, which aimed to study the dynamics of intergroup conflict and cooperation among young boys. The experiment was conducted in a summer camp setting, where two groups of boys were formed and kept separate from each other. The groups were given several tasks to complete, and as the experiment progressed, the researchers introduced elements of intergroup competition, which led to conflict between the two groups. The book describes in detail the various stages of the experiment, including the formation of group identities, the introduction of competition, and the eventual resolution of conflict. It also provides insights into the psychological processes that underlie intergroup conflict and cooperation, such as social identity theory, social norms, and intergroup contact. Overall, Intergroup Conflict and Cooperation: The Robbers Cave Experiment is a seminal work in the field of social psychology, providing valuable insights into the dynamics of intergroup relations and the factors that influence conflict and cooperation. It is a must-read for anyone interested in understanding the complex social dynamics that shape our world.Additional Contributors Include William R. Hood And Carolyn W.
