During his life, Tajfel published seven books and over 95 articles and book chapters. There are two main strands in Tajfel’s intellectual corpus - social perception and intergroup relations – and so the bibliography below is organised along those lines, with a third section of miscellaneous publications and a fourth of radio broadcasts.
