Who we are

• DEHUMANIZATION (Guards)
  • Excluding others from the moral order.
• DEINDIVIDUATION (Guards)
  • Feeling little personal responsibility in anonymous situations where external social restraints are weak.
• PASSIVITY IN THE FACE OF THREATS (Guards & Prisoners)
  • Fear of retribution by the "in-group."

Here we see three avenues to peace already paved by Adorno, Milgram, Zimbardo, Altemeyer, Stout, Dean, and confirmed by Jessica Stern's courageous field work interviewing terrorists at large.
