In 1963‚ Stanley Milgram was interested in the psychology behind people who blindly follow authoritative figures. His interest in this idea peaked because of WWII and the atrocities practiced by the subordinates of Hitler. As a way to test this question‚ Milgram came up with a university study that would put people’s conscience to the test. This observation of the human mind would lay a groundwork and test the boundaries of understanding the thought process behind genocides. It did not examine

In the text he often attacks single mothers with no father in the household. Also‚ he attacks innocent children with bad parenting. I believe Cosby makes such statements because most of them are true. Even though I am a part of the minority or lower class I strongly agree and disagree with Cosby’s remarks. That’s because it is a high percentage

Stanley Milgram conducted an examination‚ in the 60’s‚ based on the justification for the acts of genocide offered by those who were accused in the Nuremberg War Criminal Trials of WWII.

This essay even though it was written in 1974 is still used today because of its historical
