In-group pride need not involve hostility toward out-groups

Evidence

Even so, it would be a mistake to view derogation and disparagement as inevitable outcomes of intergroup competition, despite the consistent actions of right-wing leaders in the U.S. Congress. As Allport (1954) and others have argued, in-group pride, in-group patriotism, and other characteristic features of in-group positivity need not spring from aggression, derogation, or other forms of socially destructive hostility toward out-groups (Bigler, Jones, & Lobliner, 1997; Brewer, 1979, 2001; Cameron, Alvarez, Ruble, & Fuligni, 2001; Cashdan, 2001; Feshbach, 1994; Hewstone, Rubin, & Willis, 2002; Hinkle & Brown, 1990; Kosterman & Feshbach, 1989; Mummendey, Klink, & Brown, 2001; Rabbie, 1992; Struch & Schwartz, 1989; Turner, Intergroup Relations and Majority or Minority Group Influence • 229 1978). — Roderick M.

Categorization

• XREF: Directly corroborates the reader’s existing Allport reassessment thread on prejudice psychology; the citation of Allport (1954) makes the connection explicit.
• ADDENDUM: Supports the broader claim in the reader’s thread that hostility toward out-groups and simple in-group attachment are separable mechanisms, relevant across Islamophobia/antisemitism analyses.
• corroborated: 3 independent passages support this claim — Roderick M. Kramer, Geoffrey J. Leonardelli, Robert W. Livingston, Social Cognition, Social Identity, and…, 1400
