Please join the Alcohol Policy Network and the Ontario Injury Prevention Resource Centre as they facilitate a teleconference on alcohol and violence. The presentation provides a summary of research, theory and practice described in the recent book by Graham and Homel (2008). It starts with discussion of a model of bar violence that draws on situational crime prevention, routine activities and social interaction theory. The model includes the role of alcohol, the patrons who frequent bars, staff who work in licensed settings, the barroom environment, social process leading to aggression and the larger regulatory environment. The second part of the presentation focuses on the different approaches that have been developed for preventing bar violence including evidence of their effectiveness.
