My Career in Social Psychology

Abstract

My social psychology journey began in 1968 when I went to Edinburgh University as an undergraduate. As some may remember, that year was also memorable for other reasons. It was the year that Martin Luther King, that great civil rights leader, was assassinated. It was the year that Enoch Powell, a Conservative British politician, made a hateful speech apocalyptically predicting that unchecked immigration would lead to civil unrest and bloodshed on the streets of Britain. It was the year when “les evénements” in Paris threatened to upset the established order in several European countries. And it was the year when invading Soviet tanks brought the nascent Prague Spring to a swift and brutal end in Czechoslovakia.
