THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN CAPITALISM AND HOMICIDE RATES: A CHINESE CASE STUDY

Journal Title: Asian Journal Social Sciences & Humanities - Year 2016, Vol 5, Issue 1

Abstract

This article will tackle the question of whether there is certain relevance of homicide and capitalism. It will examine the circumstances in China as it is highly adjustable for the background premise in anomie theory and it is in favor of a structural explanation that capitalism is not the driving force for the whole level of homicide. But it is responsible for economically-motivated homicide. Since the motivations of different homicide crimes are quite different and complicated, it would be better to view them separately to find out the correlation. Because of several related factors, there is no fixed conclusion to judge that the whole level of homicide is influenced by modernization or capitalism.
