| Summary |
In 1971, Philip Zimbardo, Craig Haney, and Curtis Banks carried out a psychological experiment to test a simple question, what happens when you put good people in an evil place, does humanity win over evil, or does evil triumph? To explore this question, college student volunteers were pre-tested and randomly assigned to play the role of prisoner or guard in a simulated prison at Stanford Univerity. The research was ended after six days because the social situation became a threat to the safety of the subjects. Includes original archival footage from the 1971 Stanford Prison experiment along with more recent footage from a 20 year follow up |
