Stanford Prison Experiment

The infamous experiment where subjects were shown to willingly inflict torture on others just because they were ‘obeying orders’. The psychologist at the center of the experiment was a witness for the defense at the Abu Ghraib trials, where he stated that any person was capable of evil, given the right circumstances. More importantly, he suggested that people would return to normal after, something which has dramatic implications not only for the criminal justice system, but the people who choose to send people to war or circumstances where evil actions are certain outcome.

Chechen Music, New Year in Grozny 2006

For no other reason than to parry the Borat documentary with something from former, (or want to be former Russian) Soviet central Asia that was the inspiration for Borat, rather than Kazakhstan in particular. A testament to the wonders of the Internet, and the obscure stuff that you can find with a single keystroke, a Chechen New Year, with oddly catchy music – enjoy.

Running time: 1 hour 40 mins.
