Attachments Harry Harlow (1959), was responsible for some of the most controversial experiments to have been performed in animal laboratories. Disturbed female monkeys were forced to breed against their will. Baby monkeys were hung upside down in total darkness for up to two years. So what motivated Harry Harlow to conduct such disturbing experiments? Bizarrely, the answer is love. Harry Harlow's work was an attempt to understand the nature of love, particularly that between mother and child. Defenders maintain that Harlow: revolutionised and brought warmth to the way we parent infants influenced crucial policies which operate in children's homes, social service agencies and the birthing industry in Britain and throughout the world today. Can cruelty teach us anything about love? harlow’s monkeys

Social Psychology Conformity & Obedience
