"Blaming the Victim" by William Ryan
[ send me this paper ]
7 pages in length. A review of the book by William Ryan in which he focuses on the fact that society tends to place the blame of societal ills on those people who are actually victims of society as well. For instance, rather than placing blame on those who live in abject poverty and unable to get off the welfare roles, perhaps we should look to their surroundings first and see where the blame really lies. Ryan makes a good point in discussing the ‘slum lords’ at one point. Instead of blaming the people who live in filthy conditions in the slums, perhaps we should first take a look at the slum itself.
