Peace and Conflict: Journal of Peace Psychology, Vol 30(1), Feb 2024, 58-70; doi:10.1037/pac0000694Group-based grievance has mainly been studied from the perspective of disadvantaged and minority groups. Following the refugee crisis and corresponding sociopolitical changes, there has also been an increase in perceived grievance among majority groups in many European countries. The present studies examined the role of perceived threat in the relationship between autochthony-based entitlement and group grievances among members of the German majority. Across three correlational studies, we tested whether threat moderates vers...

“Righting the wrong”: A multicountry study on people’s perceptions of “making things right” in the wake of human rights violations.
Peace and Conflict: Journal of Peace Psychology, Vol 29(4), Nov 2023, 394-408; doi:10.1037/pac0000691More and more academics and policy makers advocate that countries ought to deal with past human rights violations. In this article, we explore whether people across the world agree with this normative expectation, and if so, what they think should be done to “make things right” and why. Our overarching objective was to see whether we can observe any universal patterns or common themes in this regard or whether people’s ideas and intuitions are primarily subject to cross-country variation. Through 283 interviews conduc...

Majority group attitudes toward Indigenous and immigrant peoples: The role of group identifications and territorial ownership perceptions.
This study underscores the importance of considering both the majority group’s settler and national identification when trying to understand territorial ownership perceptions in settler societies. Moreover, it shows that in such a context, ownership concerns are relevant not only for attitudes toward Indigenous peoples but also new immigrants.

From imposter phenomenon to infiltrator experience: Decolonizing the mind to claim space and reclaim self.
This article uses W.E.B. DuBois’ framework of the “double consciousness” to understand and reframe an often-used concept, the imposter syndrome/phenomenon, to reflect the reality of being oppressed, and uncover the ways that oppression urges individuals to support and maintain systems and structures that create oppressive psychological situations through internalized oppression, interpersonal dynamics, and buy-in to reward structures intentionally or unintentionally. I offer a conceptual reframe to reflect the experiences of “imposters” to the more aptly named “infiltrators.” This reframing allows us to move ...

Exposing the pervasiveness of and resistance to coloniality through the narratives of clinical-community psychology students.
This article employs storytelling to share personal narratives of clinical–community psychology PhD students of multiple marginalized identities, which expose and expound upon the ways in which global structural oppression manifests and operates in academic departments, clinical training, and community-based work, as well as in our personal lives. Situated in the context of the Palestinian uprising in Spring 2021, our stories emphasize the academic performance of solidarity and allyship that upholds colonial violence and disrupts healing and resistance.

“If I die, my children will pursue this case”: Counternarratives of power in Kurds.
Peace and Conflict: Journal of Peace Psychology, Vol 29(2), May 2023, 135-154; doi:10.1037/pac0000659Despite hundreds of years of forced and violent assimilation from multiple sources, Kurds continue to exist as dissidents, progressing their ethnonational and cultural ways of being through an anticolonial resistance. Honoring the Kurdish existence by resistance, our motivation is to bring into light the “Kurdish power” that enables this kind of resistance within the Turkish nation-state borders. Guided by critical race theory and decolonial approach, we pursue Kurds’ counternarratives of power to dismantle the hegemo...

Unseeing settler–extractive colonialism: The “blindness epidemic” in the (com)promised lands.
Peace and Conflict: Journal of Peace Psychology, Vol 29(2), May 2023, 126-134; doi:10.1037/pac0000666Decolonial praxis requires an awareness of colonial praxis: here, I show that the process of unseeing crime is central to the colonial enterprise in Palestine and significant to understanding the victimizer’s ethos, which in turn may help reframe strategically the victim’s options. First, I introduce the blindness epidemic in José Saramago’s dystopian novel, an epidemic which I later use as an allegory for the structural unseeing which has come to define the Zionist project. This is followed by a brief introduction t...

Bases of colonial violence against peripheral Black women: Strategies of governmental reparation in the realm of justice in Northeast Brazil.
Peace and Conflict: Journal of Peace Psychology, Vol 29(2), May 2023, 104-112; doi:10.1037/pac0000661Coloniality is constructed through a tangle of multiple hierarchies. Moreover, peripheral Black women are often the ones affected by colonial violence. Strategies of reparation for these violations must be concrete for these historically violated groups. Thus, this study intends to analyze the basis of colonial violence against Black women in poverty and the possible governmental strategies of reparation developed by the Committee for the Prevention and Fight Against Violence (CPFV) and the Acolhe Network. The latter is a p...

Tracing the residues of colonial, economic, and gendered violence in the narratives of Adivasi men in India.
Peace and Conflict: Journal of Peace Psychology, Vol 29(2), May 2023, 87-95; doi:10.1037/pac0000646The present article attempts to “under” stand (Bulhan, 2015) the economic and gendered violence that subtend contemporary enactments of Adivasi (scheduled tribes) masculinities in India. Breaking away from the epistemological violence (Smith, 1999; Teo, 2010) of Western Eurocentric academic traditions, this article draws on critical discursive decolonial feminist frameworks (Lugones, 2008; Segalo & Fine, 2020) to understand how Adivasi men narrate their lives, identities, and their dreams, and what they fail to speak. Two...
