Alcohol and Violence

چکیده
Of the 11.1 million victims of violent crime each year, almost one in four, or 2.7 million, report that the offender had been drinking alcohol prior to committing the crime (Greenfeld 1998). Among the attacks that were committed by current or former intimate partners of the victims, two out of three of the offenders had been drinking prior to the attack (Greenfeld 1998). Over the years, consistent findings such as these have stimulated research into factors that might contribute to alcohol-related violence and the question of whether alcohol use is not merely associated with, but perhaps a cause of, violence.
