Juvenile violence in a winner-loser culture : socio-economic and familial origins of the rise in violence against the person

James, Oliver. (Author).

Summary: Since the 1980s, the gap between the rich and the poor has widened - a winner-loser culture has emerged, with the disadvantaged deemed the 'losers'. Marshalling the most up-to-date research on crime and violence, both nationally and internationally, and linking it to trends in social, familial and economic dysfunction caused by deprivation, Oliver James shows how inequality serves to provide the breeding ground for violence and the conditions by which it is perpetuated.
