The Balkans Homicide Study analyses 3,000 (attempted) homicide cases from Croatia, Hungary, Kosovo, Macedonia, Romania and Slovenia. Shedding light on a region long neglected in terms of empirical violence research, the study at hand asks: - What types of homicides occur in the Balkans? - Who are the perpetrators and what motivates them? - Who are the victims and what potential protective factors are on their side? - Why do prosecutors dismiss homicide investigations? Amongst other questions and considerations, this brief discusses regional commonalities throughout the Balkans in view of their cultural, historical and normative context. Dismantling negative stereotypes of a growing and thriving Balkan society, this volume will be of interest to researchers in the Balkans, researchers of post-conflict regions, and those interested in the nature of homicide and its motivation, prevention, and various criminal justice approaches. 001431128 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed September 20, 2021). 001431128 650_0 $$aViolence$$zBalkan Peninsula. 001431128 650_0 $$aMurder$$zBalkan Peninsula. 001431128 650_6 $$aViolence$$zBalkans. 001431128 650_6 $$aMeurtre$$zBalkans. 001431128 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001431128 830_0 $$aSpringerBriefs in criminology,$$x2192-8541 001431128 852__ $$bebk 001431128 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-030-74494-6$$zOnline Access$$91397441.2 001431128 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1431128$$pGLOBAL_SET 001431128 980__ $$aBIB 001431128 980__ $$aEBOOK 001431128 982__ $$aEbook 001431128 983__ $$aOnline 001431128 994__ $$a92$$bISE
