ABSTRACT

The current article explores the relationship between institutional imbalance (Institutional Anomie Theory) and the Stream Analogy of Lethal Violence (SALV). The stream analogy proposes that both homicide and suicide are generated by the same force of production while different structural and cultural factors serve as the force of direction. Using various cross-national sources, we hypothesize that institutional imbalance is a force of direction, with stronger institutional imbalance leading to more individuals committing homicide than suicide. In addition, for exploratory purpose, we examine whether the institutional imbalance is related to the force of production. Our findings support neither of these hypotheses.

制度失衡作为方向力量:制度失范理论在致命暴力流比喻中的意义

摘要

本文探讨了制度失衡(制度失范理论)与致命暴力的流类比(SALV)之间的关系。类推法表明,凶杀和自杀都是由相同的生产力产生的,而不同的结构和文化因素则作为方向的力。我们使用各种跨国数据,假设制度失衡是一种方向性力量,制度失衡越严重,导致自杀的人数就多于自杀。另外,出于探索的目的,我们考察了制度失衡是否与生产力有关。我们的发现不支持这些假设。
