Speakers Corner Liberal Social

We heard that 132 000 cases of domestic violence were recorded for the last 8 years.
I’m not sure if this that kind of crime that arises when societies become modernized, like some people argue. It seems to me that this is the kind of crime attached to more conservative and traditional societies. Those societies tend to enjoy less crime in the streets, silenting what happens inside walls.
I beleve that domestic violence is not rising. Instead, cases of domestic violence are increasing because there is a wide and growing movement to stop hiding this cases as a natural order of things within marriage, and treat it as it is – abuse, a crime, a social cancer. That’s an effect of modernization.
