Whilst trawling through the usual distractions found on the Internet I came across an article that quoted a Professor Zimbardo of Stanford University as saying "If you give people power without oversight it is a formula for abuse''. Having just finished re-reading Nineteen Eighty-Four, it made me think of the 'Ministry of Love' (Part 3, Section 2) and the 'waxen faced' officers.
I thought the link to Professor Zimbardo's site would be worth sharing and the book a worth while read.
