Abstract | ||||
Violence is a complex, multidimensional phenomenon influenced by social, psychological, cultural, and biological factors. Its causes and effects are deeply intertwined and challenging to address. This study provides a comprehensive framework to analyze violence through six theoretical categories: Structural Theories: Emphasize how social and economic frameworks shape violence. Cognitive-Process Theories: Examine cognition and emotion in violent behavior. Legal-Control Theories: Assess laws, regulations, and sanctions as constraints. Developmental Theories: Highlight how psychological and social development influence aggression. Behavioral-Acquisition Theories: Focus on learning and observation in adopting violent acts. Biological-Factor Theories: Explore genetic, hormonal, and neurological underpinnings. Drawing on recent literature (2020–2024), this research incorporates current perspectives. It demonstrates practical applications of these theories across three areas: Education: Applying social learning principles to foster peaceful conflict resolution. Public Policy: Addressing structural roots of violence, such as poverty and inequality. Rehabilitation: Designing targeted interventions to modify violent behavior and support reintegration. The study concludes by recommending interdisciplinary research, preventive programs for high-risk groups, and improved methodologies to reveal less visible forms of violence, including symbolic and structural types. Ultimately, this approach supports policymakers and practitioners in developing comprehensive, sustainable strategies that enhance social cohesion and justice. | ||||
