the stanford prison study What was the experiment trying to achieve? This experiment was designed to depict how various situations can affect the behaviour and mindset of an individual.

This experiment also indirectly indicated how power corrupts‚ as the “guards” also experienced an altered mindset. What

After reading the Communist Manifesto‚ I don’t think the political system in the United States mirrors that of a communist at all. We are most definitely a capitalist government as Marx very well mentions and his remarks on this type of government and society we have are very accurate. Sure enough‚ private companies and high competition in the states are still run by individuals rather than the government‚ thus‚ opposing his prescriptions. However‚ in our country we certainly have a few aspects of

George orwell’s book 1984 had many similarities to communist russia. I believe that his book was a future reflection on what communist russia would have been like if there was no revolution to shut down the government and stop the from controlling the people in every aspect of their life. It’s clear that Orwell was influenced by the totalitarian regimes of the time‚ specifically‚ Hitler’s Nazi Germany and Stalin’s Communist Russia. Both regimes glorified and almost deified their leaders‚ practically
