- Topic: Backstage and Frontstage: Unpublished and Published Accounts of Stanley Milgram鈥檚 Obedience Experiments and their Implications for 鈥淥bedience to Authority鈥
Abstract
The availability of Stanley Milgram鈥檚 archival material has attracted renewed scholarly attention to the most famous experiments in psychology. Recent scholarship drawing on archival material has shed new light on the ethical, methodological and theoretical interpretations of Milgram鈥檚 research with some calling for a major revision of the way the obedience experiments are portrayed in scholarly, textbook and public accounts (Burger, Girgis & Manning, 2011; Griggs, 2015). In this seminar I will present some findings from interviews with former subjects and research staff and my own research in the archives to聽enrich our understanding of the research and challenge some of the myths that have grown up around it.
