The "Advances in Group Processes" series publishes theoretical
analyses, reviews and theory-based empirical chapters on group
phenomena. Volume 19 includes papers that address fundamental
issues of solidarity, cohesion and trust. Chapter one shows how
solidarity is a consequence of group-level phenomena (competition)
and individual level phenomena (similarity). The second chapter
examines solidarity among injection drug users, showing that the
cohesion and solidarity of drug users are patterned by principles
of collective action. The next two chapters integrate extant
theories to provide new insights. Chapter three integrates
principles of social exchange, status organizing processes and game
theory to theorize solidarity; while chapter four shows how
research on emotions can explain solidarity in
status-differentiated groups. Two chapters then review and analyse
long-standing programmes of research on cohesion and trust. Chapter
five reviews a decade of growth for the theory of relational
cohesion, showing how emotions lead to cohesion and commitment.
Chapter six analyses how learning and social control can produce
trust in networks of varying size. The final two chapters examine
processes that are often neglected in the production of solidarity
and cohesion. Chapter seven analyses group loyalty as a function of
intra- and inter-personal factors. Chapter eight examines how
relatively subtle features of speech arrangements can either
maintain or disrupt solidarity. Overall, the volume includes papers
that reflect a wide range of theoretical approaches to solidarity
and contributions by scholars that work in the general area of
group processes.
