Crime Rates in the South

The data consistently shows that the violent crime rate in South America is higher than in other parts of the United States (Anderson, 2001). The hot hypothesis and the hypothetical cultural assumption of the South are many explanations of the high percentage of violence in the south. Hot hypothesis insists that heat increases aggressive behavior (Anderson, 2001). But Baron and Bell examined this hypothesis and found inconsistent results. They discovered that high fever would reduce aggression if other discomfort factors are involved.

Since the early 1980s, the criminal rate of South Africa steadily increases. There are many reasons why the country's crime rate is high, but the most important thing is that the unemployment rate is high 17. Another possible cause of a crime is the result of a major transformation of the nation. The main responsibility for a safe and crime-free environment is in the state, but the private sector has also responded to criminal deterioration in South Africa through its anti-criminal initiative.

Overall, looking closely to South Africa, the crime rate is gradually getting out of hand. They have the highest crime rate throughout Africa. Six of the most dangerous cities in Africa are South Africa. 55 people were killed every day. Last year alone only 18,000 murders were recorded. Rape cases of 40,000 people were reported. There are an average of 430 attacks a day. This is a country surrounded by crime. Ignoring this story, already two things have been achieved. Firstly, it helps marginal groups take real problems - violent attacks on farmers and occupy their land - and turn it into a story suited to their story. Secondly, it allows a group of Marxists to successfully convince their people by using populism, redistributing property and land, and doing desperate things.

The violent crime rate has declined for the seventh consecutive year in the past two decades and has decreased for 18 consecutive years. The crime rate of property decreased for 12 consecutive years, but it decreased for 19 years in the past 20 years. Since 1991, the proportion of violent crime has fallen by half, but the proportion of property crime has decreased by about 45%. What is the driving force of decline? It is easy to think that large macroeconomic factors can explain the tendency of crime. When the economy got worse in 2008, it is easy to find a story predicting the wave of new crime. However, it is difficult to verify the verification hypothesis, since crime obviously affects and influences macroeconomic factors.
