The TV experiment “Suddenly war?” incited ordinary citizens to each other under studio conditions. And it works amazingly fast – before the camera mutate human primates to fight

ins Camp come quite average people.. From the street, from shopping malls. Completely “normal”, as they say. But who among us is already really normal? In the camp they develop within a few days to combat machines. You agree guturales monkeys howl on to paint war paint the face, call enthemmt things like: “Team Red is dead” Or: “Fair play is over. We destroy you! “

The TV experiment” Suddenly war? “In the ZDF special channel Neo incited these warriors each other from everyday life, to find out how quickly modern German lay their civilization layer and go on the warpath against each other , This is, as it turns out, very quickly. ZDF investigator Christopher Lesko puts it unempört as possible: “If you put yourself into victories-are willing, when emotions take control, then the adult-being is forgotten. This goes very fast “

Robbers Cave Experiment

This is the start evening just the first part of the experiment over, which is based on a legendary trial of 1954:”. Robbers Cave ” , In it the social psychologist Muzaffer Serif had reintroduced two dozen US teens guys in American Robbers Cave State Park. They quickly formed groups – manipulated by Serif – moved against each other to field. They could be pacified only when the warring factions were faced with problems that could cope only together. If this constellation also 2015, postmedial socialized adults who are accustomed to manipulative TV formats like “Big Brother”, so to take?

The two six teams in the ZDF, team blue and team red, develop very afloat their respective collective identity. Group dynamics Lesko explains: “The fact that escalate conflicts can include three components: 1. We are the good guys. 2. Those are the evil. And 3. The take us away what. “To catalyze this perception of both teams, he has introduced into each a mole, which controls the group dynamic in discreet Leskos sense. But that they are being manipulated, the parties will hardly come to mind. As much as they are busy each other perceive as a bogeyman. Given enough already that they already perceive the existence of “the other” at all.



We compared the

The latent aggression reduces their opportunity to reflect on what is happening, right at the beginning. Bald is Team Blue the watchword of that Team Red “surely is shit”. For now, however, the teams are still occupied with themselves in part. 1 In group matches they stabilize their internal architecture. Even here the Big Brother Lesko staged much. So the Blues are given preference in the game – which will later help to fuel the competition. Until the war, it is not far off. One team in blue is ever fit Jihad.

Soon they speak openly in Part 2 of the “war”. The nasty word makes later action. For this purpose, it is enough the impression that the one who apparently taken away the other breakfast. Moreover Lesko disadvantaged Team Red also the second competition. Add to that a bit triumphant primate roar of “enemies.” – And everything is ready for the escalation

violence instead of sex

Pleasant on this format is that a mandatory sexualization omitted as comparable programs on private television. It also here to jump two blondes around in front of the camera, which would have to “Big Brother” -RTL2 the role to crawl with the boys under the covers. Derlei would however undermine the cohesion in their groups. And so we observe on ZDF Neo takes the dawning sexual violence. That this would be to frighten, sounds a bit too much after Moralinsäure. Rather already leaves a this television experiment clearly see human nature
