“…This has generated social identity analyses of a diverse range of phenomena (e.g., , 1999Capozza & Brown, 2000;Ellemers, Spears, & Doosje, 1999;Robinson, 1996; J. C. Turner, Hogg, Oakes, Reicher, & Wetherell, 1987;Worchel, Morales, Páez, & Deschamps, 1998) and has provided a social cognitive framework for social psychology to reexamine leadership as a group process. In this article I describe a social identity theory of group leadership.…”

A social identity theory of leadership is described that views leadership as a group process generated by social categorization and prototype-based depersonalization processes associated with social identity. Group Over the past 25 years social psychology has placed relatively little emphasis on the study of leadership. This is probably associated with the well-documented decline during the 1960s and 1970s of interest in small group research, the associated ascendency of social cognition, the European emphasis on large scale intergroup relations, and the "outsourcing" of small group and leadership research to organizational and management departments (for historical overviews, see

“…With regard to sameness and difference, identity can be divided into "personal identity" and "social identity." As Worchel (1998) explains, the former refers to identities which render individuals different than others. On the other hand, the latter indicates identities mostly based on shared similarities within groups.…”

Self-identification of three bilingual language teachers: a multi-case study

Summary. Identity, as a complex and relative notion, is extremely hard to define, especially when it comes to bilingual people who are to cope with two or more identities. The relationship between language and identity is already intricate, and those who are born into bilingual families not only deal with these lingual complexities, but also social diversities. Starting from this point, this qualitative multi-case study addresses the issue of identity through the in-depth analysis of three bilinguals who are also second language teachers at a private foundation university. The data were collected mainly through face-toface semi-structured interviews, and similar and different themes were revealed by withincase and cross case analysis. The participants reflected on how they labeled themselves in terms of their identities as bilinguals. Finally, the research revealed that family bonds and emotions, as well as social norms and language, played various roles in the selfidentification of bilinguals. The fact that the acculturation and integration strategies of the participants were different and that self-identification was remarkably subjective and flexible were the other underlying outcomes of the research.

“…Freud's analytical logics work as if societies were incapable of substantive reinventions in their characteristics, by reinventing the sense of social identities that constitutes them. However, one hundred years later we are much more confident that historical times produce new social identities and permanently reinvent the meanings of those that resist over time (Amâncio, 2006;Capozza & Brown, 2000;Chaiken & Eagly, 1993;Lima & Correia, 2013;Tajfel, 1981;Worchel et al, 1998).…”

“…Our analysis also highlights interactions between the elites and common people, taking into account that these interactions constitute the kernel of national territorial identities and typify the relations of power within each social fabric (see Amâncio, 2006;Capozza & Brown, 2000;Tajfel, 1981;Worchel et al, 1998). As time passes, though interpretations of the European colonial legacy by Africans themselves has never ceased to be significant, it has been taking on paradoxical meanings in relation to its original postcolonial sense (Weber, 2005a).…”

Historical Details on Freud and the Moral Order Foundations of Societies

Freud considered that, in the beginning, the idea of society resulted from the moral order imposed by a totemic ideal generated by feelings of guilt and remorse motivated by the parricide of the founder of the community. Since the substance of the process has persisted in reinventions of social identities throughout history, from this assumption the article interprets the foundations of the moral order in postcolonial African societies, whose origins date back to pre-colonial African heritage, European colonial legacies and reactive historical phenomena of independence. While Freud's ideal type focuses on the sense of collective guilt, the authors' empirical approach highlights the historical relevance of the ideal of victimization in the twentieth century.
