LET'S CURB VIOLENCE Here's How! - Donald D Schroeder - May 1983

Donald D Schroeder

Here we focus on the two primary causes that contribute to violence. How do you explain the growing crime and violence in our world? The senseless street killings, rape and assault in so-called civilized societies? Why has the rate of violence surged skyward during the unparalleled prosperity of the post World War II period? And much of it is not between strangers but in family units between husbands and wives, parents and children or between social acquaintances. Child abuse, mate beating, suicide and murder - violence in all its forms - now is the United States No.1 public health problem, says U.S. Surgeon General C. Everett Coop. But he laments that criminologists and sociologists are confused as to why. - Information Supplied By: Herbert W Armstrong Library
