First published in 1976. Violent behaviour occurs in every society.
It grows out of the social order and can therefore be understood
only in a social context. This book examines an orderly and
relatively tranquil society, a small Israeli town settled by new
immigrants, which is run by public agencies who pour in their
resources to maintain the inhabitants. Circumstances have made the
town an egalitarian society, but also limit its members' economic
opportunities. This society has produced its special combinations
of violent behaviour. The analysis extensively employs the 'case
method' which has increasingly been used by social anthropologists.
