| Popis: | This chapter is concerned with the most common and yet most overlooked form of homicide – that which takes place amongst males. Specifically, we explore explanations that may help us understand the nature and causes of homicide amongst men. In particular, we focus on the role of the micro-environment, including notions of saving face and defending honour, and we consider some of the structural and cultural explanations that have been developed to understand masculine homicide. |
