In the United States, politics has become tribal and personalized.
The influence of partisan divisions has extended beyond the
political realm into everyday life, affecting relationships and
workplaces as well as the ballot box. To help explain this trend,
we examine the stereotypes Americans have of ordinary Democrats and
Republicans. Using data from surveys, experiments, and Americans'
own words, we explore the content of partisan stereotypes and find
that they come in three main flavors-parties as their own tribes,
coalitions of other tribes, or vehicles for political issues. These
different stereotypes influence partisan conflict: people who hold
trait-based stereotypes tend to display the highest levels of
polarization, while holding issue-based stereotypes decreases
polarization. This finding suggests that reducing partisan conflict
does not require downplaying partisan divisions but shifting the
focus to political priorities rather than identity-a turn to what
we call responsible partisanship.
