Translated title:
Phenomenological investigation of the exercise of power in the Stanford Experiment 1971
Summary:
The question of the rational exercise of power is a perennial research object in the field of social sciences. The causes that promote the investigation of the issue correspond to the modification of human behavior at the level of the transmitter, exercising power and, respectively, at the level of the receiver, evaluating the effects brought about on the human psyche and determining the thinking and action of the subjects. In the research field, various investigations were conducted studying the exercise of power over subjects and the alienation of their personality. The present research attempts to review the exercise of power in the Stanford Experiment in 1971, utilizing Phenomenology in the context of its methodological meaning. In particular, an attempt is made to highlight the aspects that govern the dominant models and the effects on the psychosynthesis of the participants (transmitters and receivers) in the Experiment. Also, the actions that give the person the status of good and evil are investigated and it is checked whether they do good or bad deeds respectively. The rejection of basic ethical research principles of the experiment had the consequence of causing various reactions, but also the foundation of an investigation of the principles that should govern the subsequent research procedures in the context of authoritative practices.
