Abstract

The article V.N. Pavlenko “S. Milgram’s experiment through the lens of historical psychology” is one of the few attempts in the “post-Soviet space” of sincere and impartial analysis and understanding of american classical socio-psychological research. For this reason, the author’s work deserves attention and respect. At the same time because of logical and methodological miscalculations the article of V. Pavlenko, in my opinion, cannot be classified as successful. Why? About this in the “notes” below.
