Situational Violence

The world health organization describe violence as the intentional use of physical force or power, threatened or actual, against oneself, another person, or against a group or community, that either results in or has a high likelihood of resulting in injury, death, psychological harm, maldevelopment or deprivation. Violence is a common reaction of people or animals living in a community. In fact through history many scientists and psychologists, such as Charles Darwin, support the idea that only the strongest ones will survive. For surviving and being able to reproduce animals have to adapt to their environment and fight for food and territory. But sometimes even humans act instinctually when the social conditions of their environment require it.
The socialization factors of violence include poverty, exposure to violence through media, and peer influence. Often a fear of violence is created which can result in being more likely to use violence in a given situation. As well, people who live in countries which are at war are more likely to be violent towards each other. When there is not enough money for buying food, o for buying a medicine for your sick son, or also when your country is in war or since childhood you were raised with violent principles, it would be normal that you act in a violent way.
Socialization causes of violence are important for understanding the behavior of many people that desperately have to act in that way for surviving. Also, the media and war situations indirectly enter to your brain and make you act in that certain way. Studying the socialization causes of violence help to understand why sometimes people act that way, and that the solution for this could be in our hands.
