Social Psychology Question - Abu Ghraib Prison

by Maitreyee
(Mumbai, India)

I am a psychology honour's student in India. For a paper that I have to submit, the topic being - Why American soldier's tortured Iraqi detainees in Abu Ghraib Prison- I would like any suggestions related to the basic outline, as in the points that should be covered.

I plan to include destructive obedience, lack of leadership, power politics, in-group and out-group and possibly the aggression levels of the male soldiers as compared to those of the female soldiers. If you could provide any papers on the same as reference for my paper, or any links or places I could look up information in as well as any suggestions you might have, I will greatly appreciate your help. :)
