Anna MadogloAnna Madoglou Professor of Social Psychology, Department of Psychology, Panteion University, Greece. Her research interests focus on the processes of social influence and on the minorities’ activity. More specifically, I study the identity of social adversaries, the conflicts that emerge among them and the stake of those conflicts in social, historical and political conditions of interaction, where the minorities have a significant role. In this context, strategies to accomplish minority goals are proposed. She is also interested in the study of social thought, the way it is constructed and its functions, through the approach of social representations and social memory. Especially, over the last few years I have focused on a well hidden side of social thought, which concerns latent representational contents, and is called “social oblivion”.
