The Experience and Fear of Violence in the Public Realm

This book explores violent and discriminatory values and beliefs and their interconnectedness between societal echelons. Violence has a foundation and a context. It comes from somewhere and is directed at someone or something, and it has an ambience established through generations and political, financial and religious strategies.
