Literature Review on (Ethics) Milgram Experiments

In the Encyclopedia of Public Administration and Public Policy, [1] Holona L. Ochs and Andrew B. Whitford provide the following summary about the topic of (Ethics) Milgram Experiments: The results of Milgram's research provides us with a fundamentally different understanding about how authoritarianism and conformity are not confined to particular social groups or types of people or even to types of situations. This entry discusses the strong implications for ethical behavior on the part of experimenters who study authority relations in controlled settings. Recent innovations in the protection of human subjects in experimental and other research settings are broadly due to the innovations introduced—and the resulting findings—by Milgram.
