Fight, Flight, Mimic: Identity Mimicry in Conflict - Book by Diego Gambetta & Thomas Hegghammer

In Fight, Flight, Mimic: Identity Mimicry in Conflict, Diego Gambetta and Thomas Hegghammer examine the psychological and sociological aspects of identity formation during conflict. The authors explore how individuals and groups adapt their behaviors in response to threats, often mimicking the identity of the opposing side or the prevailing power structures to secure survival or status. By analyzing historical and contemporary conflicts, they highlight the complexities of identity politics, especially when survival instincts clash with personal and collective identities. Their work provides valuable insights into the dynamics of conflict and its impact on identity formation.
