4TH SCIENTIFIC MEETING OF GERMAN POLITICAL PSYCHOLOGY NETWORK

"People, Groups, and Politics in Times of Crises” March 9-10, 2023, Universität Bielefeld

The German Political Psychology Network, the Institute for the interdisciplinary Research on Conflict and Violence (IKG) and the Research Institute of Social Cohesion (FGZ) host scholars from various disciplines to the 4th meeting of 24 hours of Political Psychology at Bielefeld University on March 9-10th, 2023.

In recent years, we have witnessed global crises such as pandemics, wars, and climate change. Crises enable us to see both the disadvantages, weaknesses, and insecurities of individuals and social groups in the face of uncertainty, as well as their strengths, resilience and urge to look for opportunities for empowerment. As the local, national, and international political discourses yield the significance of securitization in response to rising insecurities, the envisages of peace, reconciliation, justice, equality, and coexistence with differences seem to be weakened in terms of their rhetorical power. Political psychology is an interdisciplinary field offering great research opportunities within this context and contains many theories and methods to seek answers to questions on the subject at different levels. Realizing this great potential, the German Political Psychology Network offers an open scientific exchange and communication opportunity every year for scholars from different disciplines to present their work.

The Institute for Interdisciplinary Research on Conflict and Violence (IKG) will organize the meeting this year at Bielefeld University. There will be over 20 panels, two keynote speeches, and a fruitful atmosphere to exchange and discuss the research questions, scientific studies and ideas from various scholars.

We encourage the participation of students, researchers, and professionals interested in political psychology at the conference as presenters and as an audience. Participation is free!
