Summary
In the aftermath of collective violence, reconciliation is supposed to ensure that violent conflict does not re-erupt after official treaties have brought it to a halt. This requires attention to the psychological processes that were shaped by the group’s role as victims or perpetrators of violence, as well as to the sociopolitical context in the aftermath of violence. Based on central conceptualisations of reconciliation in political and social psychology, we review five broad categories of psychological processes that obstruct or facilitate reconciliation in the aftermath of collective violence: Identity and identity threats, collective memories of collective victimhood, acknowledgement versus denial of collective victimisation, emotions, and justice. We discuss these processes from the perspective of victim and perpetrator groups, and review examples of interventions that utilise these processes with the aim of increasing willingness for reconciliation and positive outcomes of reconciliation in the aftermath of collective violence in different contexts.
