Although bullying is associated with gangs, questions arise as to whether bullying, as such, takes place within gangs.
To provide a critical analysis of bullying as this pertains to youth gangs and especially to violence within gangs, and as applied to the behaviour of individual gang members.
Young men between 12 and 25 years of age.
Review of relevant literature with a view to theorising the nature of the relationship between bullying and violence within a youth gang context.
Bullying is associated with the reasons why individuals join gangs and with gang-related behaviour, but the violence within a gang is of a different character than that usually described by the term bullying.
Bullying has implications for related and/or subsequent types of street violence, but is less relevant for descriptions of violence within a youth gang context as such.
尽管欺凌与帮派有关,但关于欺凌本身是否在帮派内部发生仍存在疑问。
对与青少年帮派相关尤其是帮派内部暴力相关的欺凌行为进行批判性分析,并将其应用于个体帮派成员的行为。
年龄在12至25岁之间的年轻男性。
回顾相关文献,以便从理论上探讨青少年帮派背景下欺凌与暴力之间关系的本质。
欺凌与个体加入帮派的原因及与帮派相关的行为有关,但帮派内部的暴力与通常用欺凌一词描述的暴力性质不同。
欺凌对相关和/或后续类型的街头暴力有影响,但对于描述青少年帮派背景下的暴力本身相关性较小。
