	Lexikonia - le informazioni circa Philip Zimbardo (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		Zimbardo riprese alcune idee dello studioso francese del comportamento sociale Gustave Le Bon; in particolare la teoria della deindividuazione, la quale sostiene che gli individui di un gruppo coeso costituente una folla, tendono a perdere l?identità personale, la consapevolezza, il senso di responsabilità, alimentando la comparsa di impulsi antisociali.
		Tale processo fu analizzato da Zimbardo in un celebre esperimento realizzato nell?estate del 1971 nel seminterrato dell?Istituto di psicologia dell?Università di Stanford, a Palo Alto, dove fu riprodotto in modo fedele l?ambiente di un carcere.
		L?importanza e l?attualità degli studi di Zimbardo e di altri ricercatori, è dimostrata dalle recenti vicende riguardanti le torture cui furono sottoposti i prigionieri irakeni nel carcere di Abu Ghraib, ad opera di militari statunitensi, durante l?occupazione militare dell?Iraq, iniziata nel 2003.
