Culture of Violence Scale

The Culture of Violence Scale is a tool for estimating the acceptance of violence within societies. 

According to our research - and based on the theories of Johan Galtung - wars in the 21st century are only started by countries / societies where violence is accepted in other societal areas as well: In the upbringing of children (corporal punishment), in the treatment of women (domestic violence), the acceptance of capital punishment (the death penalty),  to name a few factors.

You can find it on Researchgate and on LinkedIn (free downloads)
