Image of the Other: Polish Attitudes towards Ukrainians

Nationality Stereotypes among High School Students and their Teachers in Przemysl and Lodz

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Polish-Ukrainian relations have been invariably
highly complicated. These
complications usually resulted from the very close
proximity, which on the one hand
forced the two nations (and/or states) into
co-operation, but on the other hand
engendered frequent conflicts of interests. The aim
of this book is to examine present
Polish attitudes towards Ukrainians from a
socio-psychological perspective. This
perspective is understood as a research into
psychological mechanisms of the
attitudes, nationality stereotypes or prejudices and
placing them into socio-cultural
context. Moreover, the study touches upon the problem
of ethnic and national
identity, national character and perception of the
other dependent on various social
and non-social factors. Polish attitudes towards
Ukrainians understood as national
minority and as Poland s neighbour are displayed on
the background of the
attitudes towards other national minorities and their
home states.
