- Abstract
The media presentation of adolescent violence does not withstand the test of reality, because only a very small proportion of young people are permanently violent. After a determination of the terms ›adolescence‹ and ›violence‹ in this paper, the forms and functions of juvenile violence are investigated. The personal expression of adolescent violence is the product of a life history of experience in all developmental phases. Individual adolescent experience is always embedded in specific historical, social and cultural conditions. A differentiated view brings to light that it is possible to differentiate positive and negative, respectively, benign and malignant aspects in aggression, destruction and violence. Inspired by Donald W. Winnicott, the self-regulating and relationshipregulating aspects of aggression and violence are especially emphasised.
