Opis

Violence has become part of Jamaica's diet and the norm for dispute resolution. Accordingly, the island has earned the unenviable reputation of being the murder capital of the world, one of the most violent countries in the world, and having the world's sixth highest homicide rate. This has not left schools unaffected; the ability of violence to thwart the mission of schools is well documented. This study sought to explore the school context, to ascertain its role, if any, in the antisocial behavioural tendencies of participants. Specifically, the aetiology of school violence was sought to be undestood through a deep inquiry into the perspectives of participants.
