Abstract

About the Book: How to learn from violence in everyday life?
In this publication, researchers from widely differing backgrounds analyse the root causes of violence from different perspectives and attempt to discover precisely how violence plays a role in the lives of young people, whether they be victims or perpetrators. The articles collected here are contributions to a seminar organised in the context of the Council of Europe's integrated project "Responses to violence in everyday live in a democratic society".
