English 1A 20 June 2012 Sphere of Authority Stanley Milgram‚ a Yale psychologist‚ stunned the world when he stated that “perhaps the most fundamental lesson of our study is that ordinary people doing their jobs‚ and without particular hostility on their part‚ can become agents in a terrible destructive process.” Milgram’s stunning conclusions‚ which were derived from his experiments‚ proved that obedience is one of the basic elements in the structure of social life.

How Ordinary Germans Become Nazi Mass Murderers The Nazis during World War II left a horrendous toll of dead Jews during the Holocaust. Dr. Damerow explained the result of the Nazi Holocaust left 5‚820‚960 Jews dead (Statistics on the Holocaust).When people think of Nazi soldiers they think of terrible monsters. But how did ordinary German people become mass murderers and bigots? By the use of propaganda‚ communications‚ and use of authority‚ the German people thought this was the best way to deal

incapacitated. The weapon system is designed to fire two probes‚ or darts‚ that are attached to insulated wires. When the probes make contact with a person‚ the Taser will produce 50‚000 volts of electricity‚ but only .0021 amps. According to Taser International‚ Inc. “it is not the volts that are dangerous it is the amps.” Volts are simply the rate the electricity is moving‚ but amps are the measure of current in the electricity.

have a neutral party to enforce the orders and inflict the pain where no one was hurt. So in order for there to be no real pain he use an electrical device with a 30-toggle switches labeled with voltage levels ranging from thirty volts to one-hundred fifty volts. The volts were grouped from slight shock with very little affect to severe shock with the most intense shock. They were artificial in the fact they gave an artificial feeling that was intensified through the exercise. The participants would

Voltage ● an electromotive force or potential difference expressed in volts. Voltage is measured in volts and is represented by the symbol V. http://physics.tutorvista.com/electricityandmagnetism/ohmslaw.html Resistance ● Resistance is an electrical quantity that measures how the device or material reduces the electric current flow through it. Measured in ohms (Ω) and represented by R. https://www.google.com/search?q=resistance&espv=2&biw=1366&bih=667&source=lnms&tb

Obedience results from pressure to comply with authority. Children are taught to obey from an early age by their care givers‚ in order for them to conform in society. The authoritarian rule continues through their education and working life‚ and is then passed on to the next generation. This essay will focus on the work of the American psychologist Stanley Milgram. It will also look at other studies into obedience that evolved from Milgram’s experiments from the early 1960s.
