Summary
Violence is a socio-historical phenomenon and accompanies the whole experience of humanity. It is not itself a public health issue. The World Health Organization (WHO) in 1993 World Health Day celebration repeated in its justification a statement attributed to William Forge, that: since time immemorial, infectious diseases and violence are the main causes of premature deaths [2]. In its worldwide report on violence and health, WHO reports that over one million people die each year and many other suffer nonfatal injuries from violent causes [3]. In Brazil, since the beginning of the 80s, accidents and violence are the second cause of death and, for the wide range of 5 to 39 years, are the main problem of victimization that leads to death [4]
