The guards are given complete authority from small to the vilest actions and the prisoners are the ones being oppressed.   Then in the essence of the project the prison guards show what happens when people are given power to do things freely. A quotation from the experiment says that “If people are given power, then they have the capability to be evil” to overpower others and get the feeling they’re on top that they are higher and will have more authority.
