The Theatre of the Street: Public Violence in Antwerp During the First Half of the Twentieth Century: Crime and City in History, cartea 2
Autor Antoon Vrintsen Limba Engleză Hardback – 11 dec 2019
Making use of Antwerp police records, Vrints shows that the prevailing discourse on public violence does not pass the test of empirical facts. The presumed correlation between the occurrence of public violence and the decline of neighbourhood life must even be reversed to some extent. The nature of public violence paradoxically points to the crucial importance of neighbourhood networks.
