I don't know if anyone here is familiar with this:
http://www.prisonexp.org/slide-1.htm

Basically it was an attempt to understand what happens to both prisoners and the guards when a person is subjected to prison conditions.

An interesting study in human behavior.

I feel it shows what is inherently wrong with the concept of imprisonment, if the point is to reform the 'criminal'.
