The study uses Hungarian national history to test the role of historical context and historically anchored emotions in real-life intergroup conflicts. We used an experimental design with six out-groups (Turks, Russians, Croatians, Serbs, Slovaks and Rumanians). Hungarian subjects (N = 71) were presented with twelve short historical narratives describing two events involving each out-group: one in which the out-group was the perpetrator, one in which it was victim. Dependent variables were emotions ascribed to the in-group, to the out-group and to the subject herself in each situation. Results supported the hypothesis that the historical trajectory (the sequence of positive and negative events or victories and defeats) of the in-group, as it is preserved in collective memory, evokes a specific set of intergroup emotions. The hypothesis that historically trajectory related emotions predict collective emotions that contemporary subjects experience also received support.

Group-based emotions are experienced by individuals when they categorize themselves as group members and interpret events from the group’s perspective. In our review, we introduce two major paradigms: intergroup emotions theory and collective emotions theory. Intergroup emotions theory borrows broadly from appraisal theories of emotion, and social identity and self-categorization theory. We review the criteria of IET and the emotions which are studies in the frame of the theory. Two problems are given special attention: the identification-guilt/negative emotions paradox, and the functionality of group-based emotions. Collective emotions theory deals with emotions which are crucial to establish both individual and group identity and link the past to the present. At the end of the paper, the concepts of collective guilt, collective shame and historical trajectory related emotions are introduced.
