Preferred term

mass violence  

Definition

  • Mass violence is violence directed by one or more individuals (sometimes organized groups or a nation) toward multiple other individuals (random or national, ethnic, religious, or other identifiable groups). The term has been applied, for example, to terrorist events, wartime genocide, disgruntled employees opening fire on other employees, and targeted or rampage school violence.
