Prisons have become an ubiquitous part of our collective culture, with the United States, for better or worse, being a leader in the number of people we incarcerate. What is the nature of the relationship between the captured and the captors? Can there be a spirit of cooperation between corrections officers and the incarcerated, or is it always bound to be tortured? This week, Drs. Micono and Morelos use the infamous Stanford Prison Experiment to start a conversation about American prisons in popular culture and the reality of working behind the razor wire.
