Obedience (1962)

In the film we see subjects instructed to administer electric shocks of increasing severity to another person and observe both obedient and defiant reactions After the experiment we witness subjects explain firsthand their actions Obedience is as relevant today as it was at its publication As we as a society witness suicide bombings torture and gang atrocities we wonder just how far people will go Fifty years later this experiment still resonates as people ask themselves Would I pull that lethal switch This is the only authentic film footage of Milgrams famous experiment and is essential to all foundational work in social psychology at the graduate undergraduate and high school level
