Many believe violence is such a fundamental expression of human nature that we will never be free of war. I wish to argue against this view. The analysis that follows will focus on these issues: defining violence; effects of violence; varieties of violence; causes and consequences of violence; and controlling violence. | Publication Type: | Book Chapter | Source of Publication: | The Peace of Nature and the Nature of Peace: Essays on Ecology, Nature, Nonviolence, and Peace, p. 31-40 | Publisher: | Brill | Place of Publication: | Leiden, Netherlands | ISBN: | 9789004299597 9789004299542 |
