Mind control in 1984

Tracing the concept of mind control or brainwashing from Orwell's Nineteen eighty-four through POW conversions, Patty Heart's defection to her kidnappers and the deaths at Jim Jones' Peoples Temple, Psychologist Zimbardo believes it is wrong to attribute brainwashing to external pressures. After outlining the steps in attitue change, he argues persuasively from research that real mind control is only achieved by internal needs. After exploring implications of these findings for electronic evangelism, the tape closes with three actual recordings from the People Temple including the mass suicide itself.
