Anyone engaged in teaching the topic of
obedience and social control may want to check out a documentary screening on
both Court TV and the Sundance Channel tonight at 10 eastern time (adjust for
your own time zone). The Human Behavior Experiments documentary focuses on
the Milgram and Zimbardo experiments. As you may know, the Zimbardo prison
experiment was cited as an explanation of the behavior at Abu Ghraib. Zimbardo
offers more information on his own website. In addition, the documentary
covers an infamous incident at a McDonald's restaurant in Mt. Washington,
Kentucky. Other cases are also cited. For more information, check out
a rather informative television review in today's edition of the New York
Times.
