Définition(s)

  • Collectivism is a societal orientation toward promoting the well-being of the collective, whereas individualism is a societal orientation toward the well-being of individuals. Collectivism and individualism are important concepts in group processes and intergroup relations because these concepts capture two fundamental motivations of homo sapiens: “getting along” and “getting ahead.” Because humans are social animals living in a group that often has complicated internal structures (e.g., an organization), we must get along with other group members while simultaneously trying to get ahead of them.
