“…I can even say that what drives a category is always its conflictive dimension. Otherwise it would become meaningless (Vertovec 2015;Jehn et al 2008), because one of the most important functions of a category in migration research is to make tensions visible. What interest us is a shared view about what a conflict is and to develop what bonds APT and QR: the view that a conflict always involves a set of key-agents, each defending their own interpretation and interest of a given fact, policy or declaration.…”

“…A team collectively possesses more knowledge and diversity in expertise than an individual, which can be beneficial for cognitively complex tasks.
