The Ideology Of Growth And The Utopia Of Equilibrium, John C. Cunningham

Violence As A Product Of Imposed Order, Butler D. Shaffer Jul 1975

Violence As A Product Of Imposed Order, Butler D. Shaffer

University of Miami Law Review

Many hypotheses concerning the causes of the violence which exists in our society have been presented for discussion by scholars and researchers. In this Article, Professor Shaffer explores another possible explanation for the violence. He suggests that the imposition of structured forms of order by a political-legal system (the "structuring" function) in conflict with the system's role of preventing acts of victimization (the "hygienic" function) produces a frustration of citizens' personal, economic, and social expectations. This frustration as a result may lead to aggression and violence.

A Sociological Study Of Native American Indians In Higher Education, Robert George Lake Jr. Jan 1974

A Sociological Study Of Native American Indians In Higher Education, Robert George Lake Jr.
