Option B: Obedience to Authority: Cause and Effect. First, read Stanley Milgram’s classic article on his infamous ‘shock’ experiments in the 1960’s. Follow this up by watching Obeying or Resisting Authority: A Psychological Retrospective, available via the Films on Demand section of the Ashford University Library. Read Chapter 7: Power and Politics. Then, address each of the following questions.
- What specific factors would cause people to continue to shock other people, past the perceived thresholds of extreme pain, unconsciousness, or even death?
- Provide three different explanations for this behavior, utilizing the three perspectives we have learned so far: the anthropological, political, and sociological perspectives.
- In other words, to what specific causal factor would an anthropologist attribute this behavior? What about a political scientist? A sociologist?
Be sure to provide concrete examples from the text and from your own research. In crafting your response, you must make reference to at least twosources beyond the textbook or the assigned documentary
