PSYCHOLOGY AND THE NEW HEROISM

PHILIP ZIMBARDO and DANIEL ELLSBERG in conversation

Philip Zimbardo is Professor Emeritus of Psychology at Stanford University and creator of the well-known Stanford Prison Experiment. Daniel Ellsberg is a former analyst at the Rand Corporation and served in the Pentagon under Secretary of Defense Robert McNamara. An author and political activist, he is best known as the whistleblower who released documents to the public which detailed the secrets and lies that shaped three decades of American foreign policy in Vietnam¡Xdocuments which became known as the Pentagon Papers.

These two icons of progressive thought in America met for the first time to discuss a salient question for our times: Why are some people willing to take courageous nonviolent action in defense of ethical principles ¡Veven at personal risk to themselves? This video captures that conversation and calls for a new era of truth-telling or whistle blowing by citizens privy to crucial and often classified information that the public deserves to know. Zimbardo and Ellsberg also call for a new ethic of accountability by those leaders who govern the United States, its judiciary and its military.

They challenge ordinary people to do extraordinary things¡Xto envision themselves as active and empowered and willing to take calculated risks in the service of their conscience and their fellow citizens. This defines the New Heroism. Students of psychology, sociology, political science, and recent United States history will find much to learn from this poignant and historic encounter.

PROMISE OF GROUP THERAPY, THE: THE BEGINNING PHASES

By Vivian Nelson, Bill Roller

THIS THREE-PART SERIES presents scenes from a spontaneous, unscripted group that met for ten sessions with individuals willing to reveal themselves before a live camera.

The six-hour series introduces a unique way to conceptualize small group process. As the group evolves, the videos demonstrate the phases of group therapy development and emergent leadership roles articulated by Ariadne P. Beck, founder of the Chicago Group Development Research Team and preeminent researcher in the field of group dynamics.

Throughout the series provide concise (and, we hope, incisive) commentary on the group, so that the viewer learns how object relations can be applied to the group therapy setting. The work of other systems theorists is also introduced, providing a practical method to contain conflict and intense affect by the skillful use of subgroups.

Such basic concepts as projective identification, dissociation, part-object transference, and countertransference are clearly illustrated. In our commentary we try to elaborate the meaning of the group structure and demonstrate how it maybe used to facilitate the growth of each member.

GROUP DYNAMICS AND THE NEW HEROISM: THE ETHICAL ALTERNATIVE TO THE STANFORD PRISON EXPERIMENT

By Phil Zimbardo and Bill Roller

GROUP DYNAMICS AND THE NEW HEROISM is a six hour video series which captures the unscripted, spontaneous group process of eight individuals as they learn how to work together and form groups that will help motivate and sustain the courageous actions they wish to pursue.

Our film tracks them as they obey their conscience and act in concert with each other. The viewer can follow the steps of the group as they organize themselves to act courageously and nonviolently for an ethical cause¡Xthen see them carry their project to fulfillment. We supply commentaries to help viewers follow the progress of the group.

Scapegoating was the primary dynamic in the Stanford Prison Experiment. But scapegoating is not the only way to create drama in a narrative. We present a dramatic story that is fresh and new¡Xof people who resist scapegoating in all its guises, challenge unjust authority, and act in the public interest.

Our film series will help people practice civil obedience to universal values enshrined in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the laws of the United States. It will guide viewers to act with respect for humanity, resist scapegoating of those who appear different, and activate the creative energy of nonconformity.

This film series is essential viewing for organizations dedicated to peace and justice who want to put their political and social thought to work in real life situations. College and university departments of social psychology, sociology, psychology, political science, anthropology, and other human sciences will find the format useful in creating classes that challenge and inspire students.
