The rise in violence in our societies seems inexorable: worsening inequalities and socio-professional competition, increased security and technological controls, aggressive acts against oneself or others... On analysing these dramatic events, the violence is systematically dismissed as being the sole responsibility of the individual despite being motivated by social and systemic factors.
