Описание: Employing a uniquely theoretical approach, Rampage School Shootings: Why They Occur and How to Prevent Them sheds light on the complex issue of school shootings and offers research-based solutions for proactive prevention. The text features an innovative focus on understanding why school shooters commit acts of violence, encouraging readers to not only understand how to effectively assess an individual who poses a threat, but why they came to be a threat in the first place. Throughout the text, readers are exposed to information that bridges the gap between what researchers know about rampage school shootings and what the general public knows. Different types of school shootings are explained and common assumptions about contributing factors are examined. An in-depth case study dives into the psychological underpinnings of school shooters. Readers are presented with a theoretical explanation for school shootings and explore the implications of that theory on prevention measures at both the national and local level. Scholarly in approach, yet highly accessible, Rampage School Shootings is well suited for courses in social work, psychology, sociology, counseling, criminal justice, policing, or school administration/counseling. The text is also valuable for professionals who work within school settings and are interested in implementing proactive prevention tactics.

Описание:
This volume in the 21st Century Turning Points series, a one-stop resource for understanding the people and events changing America today, analyzes school shootings and examines the broader issue of gun violence in America. It focuses on the history of school shootings in the United States and the debate that has raged for decades between gun control advocates and supporters of gun ownership rights.
School Shootings and the Never Again Movement: 21st Century Turning Points provides a broad perspective on these issues. It recounts the evolution of gun politics and policy throughout the twentieth century, explains the positions and activities of organizations and activists on both sides of the gun debate, details notorious school shootings ranging from Columbine to Parkland, and explores the potential impact of the Never Again Movement on American gun policy at the state and federal levels.

Описание: This book reviews current theoretical approaches and empirical models; applies theories to international cases; critiques the influence of the media in portrayals of past events and effect on future events; and analyzes models for prevention and intervention.
Описание: This book analyzes how school shootings are covered in the news. The author explores reasons behind the coverage patterns, the audiences` political ideologies, the influence of political actors, and the contextual elements of each shooting.
Описание: Mass shootings have become more prevalent in the past few decades, especially within the United States. Whilst the United States has suffered from hundreds of mass shootings over the years, policy change relating to guns has been limited in scope, particularly when compared with other developed nations. Recognizing that the United States has a different history and culture, new policies must be undertaken to mitigate the occurrences of mass shootings with the understanding that its response should not be the same as other developed nations.
Examining Gun Regulations, Warning Behaviors, and Policies to Prevent Mass Shootings is a critical reference book that analyzes the debates around and responses to mass shootings with a two-fold focus: the prevention, preparation, response, and recovery of mass shootings and gun proposals raised following these incidents. With a specific look at the 2017 Las Vegas shooting, the author scrutinizes the news media coverage following the incident to document its role in policy discussions, while also examining new policy responses and gun violence prevention actions that have gained traction since the event. Including the voices of those involved in gun violence prevention, as well as interviews with experts in areas dealing with prevention, preparation, and emergency response and recovery, this book centers on forthcoming themes such as licensing systems of firearms, smart gun technologies, assault weapons and weapons bans, and the portrayal of mass shootings in media. This book is essential for policymakers/lawmakers, news media, politicians and government officials, emergency management personnel, academicians, researchers, and students.

Описание: The phenomena of mass shootings appear to be on the rise. Within the past decade, shootings have occurred in schools, religious institutions, concerts, movie theaters, and other public venues, as well as at home in the form of domestic mass shootings. This phenomenon is influenced by factors such as access to guns, mental illness, the desire for fame, revenge from being bullied, and copycat killing to name a few. Mass shootings are a serious problem for society and must to be explored further in order to provide preventive solutions.
The Handbook of Research on Mass Shootings and Multiple Victim Violence is a pivotal reference source that provides vital research on contributing factors to gun violence, characteristics of shooters and victims, solutions for preventing incidents from occurring, and the impact these shootings have on the community. While highlighting topics such as school safety, cyberbullying, and mental illness, this publication is ideally designed for law enforcement, government officials, psychologists, psychiatrists, sociologists, politicians, policymakers, law makers, academicians, researchers, and students seeking current research on the latest empirical findings of mass shootings in the United States.
