Political violence –violence intended to advance political goals -and public support for political violence is increasing in the United States and in many other countries. This has profound implications for public safety and mental health as well as democracy.
Injury Epidemiology publishes peer-reviewed studies which generate objective and practical knowledge to inform interventions to reduce morbidity and mortality from injuries, including ones from violence.
We welcome submissions from any academic discipline relevant to understanding political violence.
We are seeking theory-driven studies with empirical data on injurious acts of political violence, threats of political violence, or attitudes that support or oppose political violence.
