Compose a seven to nine sentence response to the prompt: How would you compare Zimbardo’s argument that situations cause people

In the first text, Zimbardo argues that people are neither "good" or "bad." Zimbardo's main claim is that the line between good and evil is movable, and that anyone can cross over under the right circumstances. He tells us that:

"That line between good and evil is permeable. Any of us can move across it....I argue that we all have the capacity for love and evil--to be Mother Theresa, to be Hitler or Saddam Hussein. It's the situation that brings that out."

Zimbardo argues that people can move across this line due to phenomena such as deindividualization, anonymity of place, dehumanization, role-playing and social modeling, moral disengagement and group conformity.

On the other hand, Nietzsche in "Morality as Anti-Nature" also argues that all men are capable of good and evil, and that evil is therefore a "natural" part of people. However, his opinion is different from Zimbardo in the sense that Nietzsche believes that judging people as "good" and "bad" is pointless because morality is anti-natural, and we have no good reason to believe that our behaviour should be modified to fit these precepts.

What should you keep in mind as your draft your thesis statement?
ivolga24 [154]
Hi there!

Even though this question was submitted a week ago, I'd love to give pointers to those that may stumble upon this question asking for help.

A thesis statement is basically stating what your whole essay is about, and is based on your opinion. It's usually located at the end of your opening paragraph, and is short, sweet, and straight to the point (being a sentence long). When drafting your thesis statement, keep in mind the three, or two, ideas that you wrote about or are writing about in your body paragraphs. A thesis statement is kind of like paraphrasing, just making your main ideas of the body paragraphs provable.

Your thesis statement can, and is reccommended to be restated in your closing paragraph. When restating your thesis statement, I don't recommend to use the same exact sentence- change it up a bit.

An example of a thesis statement;

Peanut butter and jelly sandwiches are the best type of sandwich because they are versatile, easy to make, and taste good.

This means that my essay is focused on proving that PB&J is the best type of sandwich. My body paragraphs will be about it's versatility, how it's easy to make, and it's taste.

Hoping I helped some!
