A) We are all in this together. Collectivism is the view that individuals are interdependent members of a social group and that the greatest concern is with the group's goals, values, and wellbeing. In collectivism the emphasis is on fulfilling duties to others, even if it means sacrificing your own desires and happiness; identity has to do with group beliefs, accomplishments, and characteristics rather than individual ones.
