    Abstract

    Two studies show that international conflict events lead to exclusionary reactions toward foreign companies only among consumers with high social essentialism. This contributes to the animosity literature by showing the social-cognitive underpinning of animosity and contributes to ongoing debate in social psychology as on whether essentialist belief influences intergroup relations.
