Description

The Violent Society is a comprehensive academic work published by Routledge that examines violence as a fundamental aspect of human society. This scholarly collection brings together distinguished authors who each contribute essays exploring different manifestations and dimensions of violence across social, political, and human contexts. The work establishes that violent behaviour stems from mankind's aggressive instinct and traces how violence has persistently featured throughout history as both a reality and threat within societies. Through early foundational chapters that explain the underlying reasons for this phenomenon, the book provides readers with a complete treatise on the subject in remarkably concise form. The collection offers rigorous analysis of political violence, social aggression, and related ideological dimensions, making it an essential resource for students and scholars of political science, government studies, and social philosophy seeking to understand the complex role of violence in shaping human civilisation.

Key Features

The Violent Society by Routledge presents multiple perspectives through separate essays by leading experts in political science and human behaviour.

This Routledge publication explores violence as both a historical feature and ongoing threat within human societies and political systems.

The work examines violent behaviour as a display of mankind's aggressive instinct with explanatory chapters addressing the underlying causes.

Essays within The Violent Society cover diverse manifestations of violence across social, political, and governmental contexts.

Suitable for students and academics studying political science, government ideology, and the philosophical dimensions of social violence.
