Инстинкт заключенного. Очерки тюремной психологии

In the 19th century, the Italian psychiatrist Cesare Lombroso suggested that criminals differ from ordinary people not only in thinking, but also in the structure of the skull. He believed that only a certain type of people ended up in prisons and that they thought differently. In 1971, Philip Zimbardo debunked this theory with the famous Stanford Prison Experiment. He divided his students into two groups: prisoners and guards. A few days later, the experiment had to be stopped due to cases of unjustified cruelty of the "guards" towards the "prisoners". This experiment proved only one social law: a person always accepts the rules of the game. The more a person's freedom is restricted, the more manageable and obedient he becomes. The more aggression he shows towards his cellmates. How does a person who is in prison behave? How does his psyche change? And how does he then adapt in society? Read about it in the book of essays on prison psychology.
