Violence is a serious public health problem. The number of violent
deaths tells only part of the story, and many more survive violence
and are left with permanent physical and emotional scars. Violence
also erodes communities by reducing productivity, decreasing
property values, and disrupting social services. In recent years,
scholars have broadened their definitions of violence beyond the
realm of interpersonal harms such as murder, armed robbery, and
male-to-female physical and sexual assaults in intimate
relationships, to include behaviors often ignored by the criminal
justice system, such as human rights violations, racism,
psychological abuse, state terrorism, environmental violations, and
war. Guided by this broader definition of violence, this handbook
offers state of the art research in the field and brings together
international experts to discuss empirical, theoretical, and policy
issues.
