 \nAbstract: There is growing evidence that partisanship is a powerful soci
 al identity in both US and Western Europe democracies. This holds both goo
 d and bad normative news. On one hand\, strong partisans are defensive\, c
 onform to party norms\, and dislike partisans of competing parties. On the
  other\, they are more politically engaged and are especially likely to ge
 t involved in election campaigns working on behalf of their party. In this
  experimental study\, we explore the conditions under which partisan animo
 sity can be ameliorated without undermining strong partisan identities\, c
 ontrasting two key approaches to the study of partisanship. From an instru
 mental perspective\, the growing negativity between Democrats and Republic
 ans is due to increased ideological differences between the parties. In co
 ntrast\, an expressive approach attributes the origins of partisan antipat
 hy to the protection of group status in response to partisan threats and i
 nsults (Huddy et al 2005). In the current experiment\, 600 MTurk workers a
 re exposed to information that Democrat and Republican leaders have amicab
 le or hostile relations\, and that Republicans and Democrats are in confli
 ct or agreement over a key policy issue.\n\nFor more information on the CS
