Levin will discuss worldwide homicide rates, the changes over time in murder rates and juvenile violence. The event is free and open to the public.
According to Diane Balduzy, MCLA sociology professor, Levin is an internationally renowned criminologist. She expects that those in attendance will come away with an understanding of the relationship between homicide, power, control, politics, as well as the role statistical analyses plays.
