Aftershock. Milgram, obedience and identity
Description
Milgram’s obedience experiments are among the most famous studies ever conducted in psychology. Generations of students have been taught that they demonstrated how easily ordinary people can be persuaded to harm others when instructed to by a person in authority. But did Milgram's research really show that? Using original footage and new documentary evidence, this film suggests that Milgram's experiments demonstrate something rather different, that obedience to authority is a consequence of social identity.
