Section 5: Group Conflict Chapter 10

Prejudice consists of a negative stereotype & a strong, unreasonable dislike or hatred of a group Often remain immune to evidence

The Origin of Prejudice Psychological Functions Serves to ward off feelings of doubt & fear Allows people to use the target group as a scapegoat People puff up their own feelings of low self worth by disliking or hating groups they see as inferior

Social & Cultural Functions Some are acquired through groupthink & other social pressures to conform to the views of friends, relatives, or associates Serves cultural purposes- bonding people to their own ethnic & national group & its ways By disliking “them” we feel closer to others who are like “us”

Economic Functions Makes official forms of discrimination seem legitimate by justifying the majority groups’ dominance, status, or greater wealth “minorities are inferior, irrational, & incompetent”

Prejudice is a result of conflict When two groups are in direct competition Jobs

Reducing Conflict & Prejudice Groups must have equal legal status, economic opportunities, and power. Authorities and community institutions must endorse egalitarian norms and provide moral support & legitimacy for both sides.

Both sides must have opportunities to work and socialize together, formally & informally. Both sides must cooperate, working together for a common goal.
