How does the Community-based Violence model understand classism as form of
structural violence?
Give this one a try later!
Classism is denying individuals and grouops of class power through
marginalization. Taking power in this way is a violent act in it of itself =
makes people feel less worthy but also can lead to more violence
How does "neighbourhood/gentrification" enforce structural violence?
Give this one a try later!
Living in a disadvantaged vs well resourced neighbourhood
Gentrification pushes out groups from previously affordable
neighbourhoods. These communities may try to move to other affordable
neighbourhoods and can create clashes (we saw/see this with the
, genitrification of Regent Park and folks moving to North etobioke --
mentioned by Priscilla in class)
What are community based determinants of violence? What are their prevention and
response strategies?
Give this one a try later!
Determinants
- concentrated disadvantage
- drug trade
- environmental hazards
- high rates of firearms
- community disempowerment
Prevention/Response
- positive law enforcement engagement
- community empowerment and mobilization
What is community violence? where does it occur and what are some examples?
Give this one a try later!
Community violence occurs between individuals / groups (not families) and
is often physical in nature. Typically occurs outside of residential dwellings.
e.g. homicide and gun violence
