TY - JOUR PY - 1985// TI - The historical geography of homicide in the U.S., 1935-1980 JO - Geoforum A1 - Harries, K. D. SP - 73 EP - 83 VL - 16 IS - 1 N2 - "This research illustrates the historical persistence of homicide in the South and presents a regionalization of U.S. states based on their quinquennial homicide profiles since 1935. Several social indicators are plotted against trends in lethal violence for the homicide regions. The analysis suggests a pattern of rates declining away from a core region in Alabama and Georgia, and some convergence between the high rates of the South and the increasing rates of other regions."
