Crime Wave: The American Homicide Epidemic

The homicide rate in the United States increased by approximately 55 percent from 2014 to 2021. Tuttle examines the underlying causes behind this surge in violence, arguing that it is the result of the decline in American well-being, a growing distrust in institutions, an increase in alcohol and drug abuse, and escalating firearm sales.
