1) What is Violence?
Violence is "The intentional use of physical force or power, threatened or actual against a person,
group or community. Domestic violence, sexual violence, racial violence, a violent crime
motivated by economic gain, Gang-related and Political evidence

2) Domestic Violence
Domestic violence and domestic relations are invariably informed not only by the physical
ability to inflict violence but also by a wider cultural climate that supports male domination and
which denies children the same status as adults
Rape and sexual abuse are again informed by a culture of male domination and the idea that
women are objects for male gratification. Widespread prevalence of pornography and the
commodification of female sexuality.

3) Learnt Violence
Sociologists would want to concentrate on nurture over nature. In other words-to focus on the
ways.

4) Thomas Hobbes
Thomas Hobbes famously argued that humans were innately aggressive and that a ‘war of all
against all’ could only be avoided by concerted strategies of co-coperation building societies in
other words through sociolization and social control.

5) Genetics
The contention that aggression is part of our genetic makeup was particularly co-opted by
German geneticsts in turn giving the Nazi state an intellectual supposedly scientists justification
for aggression against others.

6) Terrorism
The Terrorism Act 2000 defines terrorism, both in and outside the UK, as the use or threat of one
or more of the actions, and where they are designed to influence the government , or an
international government organisation or to intimidate the public.
