Collective psychological ownership and reconciliation in territorial conflicts

Abstract: Collective psychological ownership refers to people’s perception that an object, place, or idea belongs to their own group. We considered this concept in the context of territorial conflicts and proposed that (1) collective psychological ownership is distinct from place attachment, (2) higher ingroup identifiers are more likely to claim collective ownership and feel attached to the territory, yet (3) only ownership claims are related to lower support for reconciliation. These hypotheses were tested in two stud… Show more

“…The answer options ranged from (1) = 'Not at all' to (7) = 'Very much'. These items were previously used by Storz et al (2020) to measure ingroup ownership but here we use them to capture outgroup ownership as well.…”

“…The exclusive determination right affords a sense of control, which is the primary need fulfilled by ownership (Beggan, 1991; Furby, 1978). However, ownership can additionally furnish a sense of identity and belongingness (Pierce et al ., 2001; Porteous, 1976), and indeed, CPO is related but relatively independent from national identification and place attachment (Brylka et al ., 2015; Storz et al ., 2020). Furthermore, national identification is a constituent aspect of right‐wing populism (Brubaker, 2019; Lubbers, 2019) that is linked to negative attitudes towards immigrants (Pehrson, Vignoles, & Brown, 2009), the EU (Carey, 2002), and the pro‐Brexit vote (Hobolt, 2016).…”

“…Further, territorial ownership feelings (“this is our land”) have largely been ignored in the research on intergroup relations in general but also on conflict resolution in particular, yet the question of whom the territory belongs to is central in many interethnic disputes (see ethos of conflict; e.g., Bar-Tal et al, 2012 ). A handful of recent studies conducted both in peaceful and conflict settings draws attention to the relevance of ownership feelings over one’s country ( Brylka et al, 2015 ; Storz et al, 2020 ; Nijs et al, 2021 ) or neighborhood ( Torunczyk-Ruiz and Martinović, 2020 ) for intergroup relations. Additionally, since one needs to feel part of “us” in order to perceive collective ownership, ingroup identification is an important prerequisite for the feeling that something is “ours” ( Verkuyten and Martinović, 2017 ; Storz et al, 2020 ).…”

However, the role of different dimensions of identification in shaping ownership perceptions has not been considered yet.…”
