The Rise and Fall of Violent Crime in America
Barry Latzer
"Explore how violent crime became one of the most significant domestic issues in the postwar era in America. This book delves into the profound effects of rising crime levels after the 1960s that altered daily lives and behaviors. Americans were afraid to go out at night, choose places to live, and plan leisure activities. 'The Rise and Fall of Violent Crime in America' combines a social history of the US with criminology to uncover the relationship between crime trends and historical events like the postwar economic boom and the urbanization of minorities."
