In Obedience to Authority, Stanley Milgram suggests that freedom is an intrinsic attribute for humans rather than an undertaking. Milgram believed that people are overly obedient because they have a potential from birth for obedience, and this potential meets society’s hierarchical and authority driven world that demands obedience.

For many years, people all over the world have been told to obey authority.
