, (A) Give your own example of destructive obedience that occurred
in your society and explain possible reasons as to the underlying
reasons why people comply with this form of social influence. (20
marks) Study chapter nine (prosocial behaviour) in your prescribed
book before attempting to answer this question.

In recent years, a notable example of destructive obedience in
society was observed in various incidents of police brutality and
excessive use of force, particularly in the context of protests or
public demonstrations. One such incident that gained significant
attention globally occurred in my country during protests against
police violence and systemic racism.
Example Incident: During a peaceful protest against police
brutality, a video surfaced showing several police officers using
excessive force on unarmed protestors, including deploying tear gas
and rubber bullets indiscriminately. Despite the protests being
peaceful, the police response escalated tensions and resulted in
injuries among protestors, some of whom were severely affected by
the tear gas.
Underlying Reasons for Compliance: Several factors contribute to
why individuals comply with destructive obedience in such
situations:
1. Authority and Hierarchical Structures: Police officers often
operate within a hierarchical structure where orders from
superiors are expected to be followed without question. This
hierarchical obedience can lead officers to use disproportionate
force, believing they are acting under orders and within their
authority.
2. Group Norms and Peer Pressure: Within police forces, there
exists a strong group norm that emphasizes loyalty and unity.
