✦ Synopsis
Agenda 2000ÐThe vision of social psychology
The rise of social psychology is closely associated with the 20th century. Both in Europe and North America, our ®eld has experienced a tremendous success as a basic science and as the foundation of many applied psychological disciplines. We have gained enormous insights into the dynamics of social behaviour, which includes people's thinking and feeling in both their conscious and unconscious components.
At the end of this century, it is time to re¯ect about where we are and where we shall go. We have set this task on the agenda of the year-2000 volume of the European Journal of Social Psychology and solicited articles from six eminent scholars. Rather than asking them to reminisce about the past, we have invited them to share their views of the theoretical and empirical goals in the future for their own domain of expertise. We trust that these contributions will inspire novel research and advance theory in social psychology.
Instead of editing a single special issue, we have decided to use an innovative format. In particular, the invited papers will be spread across the entire year and serve as the lead articles for each issue. Thus, the entire volume, which will also appear in a new cover, is partly devoted to the future perspective of social psychology and the intellectual vision that it has to oer.
