ID Number:	155
Title:	Compassion and the Prevention of Violence
Lead Author:	Stevens, Larry C
Abstract:	Worldwide, there is an epidemic of human violence. According to GlobalSecurity.org there are currently 37 violent conflicts going on in the world today. One way of combating violence is the installation of compassionate attitudes and behaviors in human beings. Research into the understanding and creation of compassion is developing in this country but the prevention of violence may well depend, in part, upon a further understanding of this important construct and of ways to foster its development across society.
