Resolving Social Conflicts: Selected Papers On Group Dynamics

By Kurt Lewin. Edited by Gertrud Weiss Lewin

FROM THE FOREWORD BY GORDON ALLPORT: “Although written at various times between the years 193s and 1946, the thirteen chapters here arranged for publication provide a logical progression of thought. They dovetail so well that they seem almost to have been written intentionally for publication in a single volume. The unifying theme is unmistakable: the group to which an individual belongs is the ground for his perceptions, his feelings, and his actions. Most psychologists are so preoccupied with the salient features of the individual's mental life that they are prone to forget it is the ground of the social group that gives to the individual his figured character.
