Template:Violence Violence is deliberate behaviour resulting in physical injury to other human beings. More broadly violence could also be directed toward animals as well. Violence is often associated with aggression, but the two are not necessarily bound together. Some forms of violence are socially and legally sanctioned, others consists of crimes within a society. Different societies apply different standards relating to approved and non-approved forms of violence. Sometimes violence that is not accepted by a society's norms is called cruel.

James W. Prescott was someone who performed a study about the cause of violence in the anthropological sense.
