Stanford prison experiment - Comparisons to Abu Ghraib prisoner abuse
The human rights abuses that occurred at the Abu Ghraib prison, under the authority of the American armed forces in the aftermath of the 2003 Iraq war, has been called a real-life example of the Stanford prison experiment. According to Zimbardo, acts of humiliation similar to those that occurred in the Stanford experiment resulted when inadequately trained U.S. soldiers were allocated the role of prison guards. The comparison was widely discussed in the media.
Seymour Hersh challenged this theory in an article in The New Yorker that proposes that Abu Ghraib soldiers were acting under the direct orders of their superiors as part of a top secret Pentagon intelligence-gathering program authorized by Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld. Zimbardo's interpretations have also been called into question by William Saletan in the online magazine Slate.
