SOC 665 - Interpersonal Violence and Its Control

(4 credits)
This seminar provides a survey and evaluation of recent research on both the patterns and causes of violence and it’s control. Among the topics examined are historical and current trends in violent crime, individual, community, and aggregate level research on the nature, patterns, and causes of violent behavior, and contemporary debates regarding differential involvement in violence among different sociodemographic subgroups. The latter part of the course provides an examination of mechanisms for controlling violence at multiple levels.
