“…According to this approach, five factors are strongly related to risk: exposure, proximity, guardianship, target attractiveness, and definitional properties of specific crimes (Justus and Kassouf, 2013). We agree with Cerqueira and Lobão (2004), who argue that the lifestyle theory is not, stricto sensu, a crime causation theory. But there seems to be no empirical literature rejecting this "theory."…”

“…Segundo a Teoria das Abordagens de Atividades Rotineiras (COHEN; FELSON, 1979) a incidên-cia de crimes e, em particular, de homicídios depende da confluência de três elementos: uma vítima em potencial, um agressor em potencial e uma tecnologia de proteção ditada pelo estilo de vida da vítima em potencial (CERQUEIRA; LOBÃO, 2004). Por sua vez, o estilo de vida é função de inúmeros fatores entre os quais as características idiossincráticas do indivíduo, seu sexo e idade, bem como suas relações familiares, comunitárias e profissionais.…”

RESUMOO objetivo deste artigo é o de analisar a letalidade violenta contra negros e não negros, para cada estado brasileiro. Em particular, estimou-se a perda de expectativa de vida ao nascer devido às violências, além de testar em que medida a diferença de letalidade entre os grupos pode ser devida a diferenças econômicas e demográficas. Como corolário verificou-se que o principal componente causador da perda de expectativa de vida dos homens negros são os homicídios. E na análise do diferencial de vitimização por homicídios entre homens negros e não negros no Brasil, os resultados indicam que o componente de racismo não pode ser rejeitado para explicar tais diferenças, para além das diferenças socioeconômicas entre os dois grupos populacionais.Palavras-Chave: Racismo. Violência. ABSTRACTThe purpose of this article is to analyze the violent lethality against blacks and non-blacks, for each Brazilian state. In particular, there was an estimated loss of life expectancy at birth due to violence, and to test to what extent the difference in mortality between the groups may be due to economic and demographic differences. As a corollary it was found that the main component causing the loss of life expectancy of black men are homicides. And the analysis of differential homicide victimization among black and non-black men in Brazil, the results indicate that the component of racism can not be rejected to explain such differences, in addition to socioeconomic differences between the two population groups.

“…ed to be exhaustive. Rather, it situates the social and psychosocial conditions that we consider relevant for comprehensive sociology, thereby differentiating it from explanatory proposals that are individual per se, such as the Bandura theory of aggression 32,33 , ecological theories 34 , economic theories 25 , and of course classical criminology 35 and the theory of deviation 36,37 , even while recognizing their contribution and sharing some aspects with all of them. The current proposal is not a model for universal explanations, because we believe it is impossible to interpret violence in the same way for ancient Greece, World War II, crimes committed by stilted lovers, or serial murders 38,39 .…”

Interpersonal violence has become one of the main public health issues in Latin American cities. This article presents a framework for sociological interpretation that operates on three levels, expressed in the factors that originate, foment, or facilitate violence. Macro-social factors include: social inequality due to the increase in wealth versus poverty; the paradox of more schooling with fewer employment opportunities; increasing expectations and the impossibility of meeting them; changes in family structure; and loss of importance of religion in daily life. At the meso-social level the analysis highlights: increased density in poor areas and urban segregation; masculinity cult; and changes in the local drug market. The micro-social level includes: an increase in the number of firearms; alcohol consumption; and difficulties in verbal expression of feelings. The article concludes with an analysis of how violence is leading to the breakdown not only of urban life but also of citizenship as a whole in Latin America.
