«El efecto Lucifer» is the social psychology essay by Philip Zimbardo, published by Ediciones Paidós in paperback (680 pages, in Spanish).
Philip Zimbardo analyses how circumstances and social roles can push ordinary people to commit atrocious acts. Drawing on the Stanford prison experiment (1971), where university students were prisoners and guards, he applies his conclusions to cases such as the abuses at Abu Ghraib. A reflection on the boundary between good and evil and collective responsibility.
Published in the Contextos collection with a translation by Genís Sánchez Barberán.
For readers interested in social psychology, human behaviour and the roots of cruelty and obedience.
