Introduction
Violence changes people in a society where individuals' activities are measured in relation to how violence has influenced victims of the same. Numerous research articles have been explored on the same topic of interest where individuals accounts have been examined and the influence of the said case identified. Just like in the reading of interest (In the shadow of war) about a young man in one of the Nigerian villages who ventured into the jungle to learn about nature and more about the mysterious woman found out about the death of the same woman out of violent policemen, the same explains what happens in other readings. It demonstrates shows what occurs daily across the community as people are affected by violence within the communities.
Apart from the fact that the mysterious women died within the same books, a series of problems followed Omovo's life explaining the effects of violence on the grounds of the civil war of Nigeria. He was exposed to a series of violence and murder, thus changed the boy, something affirmed within the story. In addition to the support of this, other research studies and books have pinned in it down and explained the same concept where violence has been identified and associated with affecting people, thus explaining how the same thing changes people within societies as connected to the area of interest. The same research studies have gone further into examining state violence and expounded on the effect of the same where individuals become the subjects or victims of events. The research paper broadly analyses how violence in society changes people by discussing various research studies and articles on the same and comparing it with the text of interest, In the shadow of war by Ben Onkri.
Methodology
The information gathered in this report has been sourced from primary sources as well as secondary sources, and all of them are listed in the reference section of the research. References used are sourced from various websites including, academic journals as well as news articles hence comprehensively providing reliable data for this research regarding how violence affects people within societies as the majority of individuals develop into victims of wars exposed.
Findings
As earlier introduced, numerous research studies have covered the effects of violence on individuals and, to a greater extent, to families where violence tortures people psychologically as well as emotionally, the same remains the cases in the text of interest introduced in the shadow war by Ben Onkri. In this section of the assignment, numerous research studies have been uncovered and compared to the said text to explain how the two fit into one another (Birch et al. 67). Richard Tedeschi on the violence transformed: post-traumatic growth in survivors broadly explains the influence of violence and demonstrates the associated effects of the same within societies and how individuals or survivors of the same behavior (Birch et al. 67). The same concept applied in the given article ascertains how violence changes people within communities as a result of exposure they encounter or experience, something they have never been exposed to before.
Within the same article, Tedeschi gives numerous experiences of survivors and the role of violence in the transformation of individuals into the different mental states (post-traumatic growth) as connected to how the same changes people in society. More often, individuals' adverse events (violence) is reflected and increased whenever they reflect to or thought about such serious traumatic events where it's marked by intrusive thoughts and flashback of such similar events. Each of the concepts of scenario explained over in this article earlier introduced, demonstrates the influence of violence as connected to an entire effect of violence and how the same changes individuals across societies where dreadful events in most cases occur. It relates to the reading of interest about the shadow of war written by Ben, where a boy becomes the subject of violence and changes mental as a result of exposure into dreadful accounts he has never been into before. Additionally, the same event that occurred and change is equated to the introduced article because several traumatic growth events emerge from dreadful experiences. The same shows how violence within societies change people.
Electoral violence in societies also explains to a greater extent how violence changes people mentally as connected to an entire concept of interest introduced before in the shadow war by Ben. Kristine, in a journal about terrorism and political violence, broadly gives accounts of numerous electoral violence where violence changes individuals extensively as they become subjects of post-traumatic events they usually keep reflecting on as a result of mental alterations (Birch et al. 67). The same introduced article shares violent concepts of electoral conflict, causes, and consequences, where individuals of given societies lose lives and love ones, remains subjects of psychological torture, thus changing them as they experience traumatic events of electoral violence. Even though the article explains and examines the influence of electoral conflict in the face of violence, it demonstrates the effects of violence and how the same changes people across different societies as a result of the impact that comes with the same act.
The same account ascertains the fact within the text of interest initially introduced that violence in societies changes people having in mind the majority of the dreadful events individuals get exposed to and how it affects their mental strength. It connects to an account of the young boy introduced in the text of interest (in the shadow war by Ben) where the boy is changed as a result of constant exposure to violence accompanied by murder and other possible traumatic events that alter individuals' mental state. Such violent event within the text and effects connects to the books read and shows clearly the effects violence in societies and how it changes people.
Additionally, domestic violence also gives a similar account where individuals are tortured psychologically, thus explains how the same changes people. The subjects of this account, in most cases, are children where they experience adverse effects of mental struggles from domestic violence associated with marriage as parents are prone or subjects of the same. Aetius in child-witnessed domestic violence shares the harmful effects of violence in the context of children and how the same adversely changes children after they are exposed to violent events several (Standen. 35). Some of the impacts of interest broadly focus on the psychological or mental effects where problems develop, and children adapt negatively to changes within the environment. It explains the influence of violence and how the same changes people within societies, something evident within the text of interest.
Individuals with how have been subjects of numerous domestic violence in most cases do not experience or function properly as they have been exposed to dreadful events that affect their psychological well-being. Some of the main effects that come with domestic violence include altered physiological and anatomical changes where an entire idea of change is established. It marks the influence and how the concept of violence in societies change people in the context of body alteration that exceeds to mental changes. Despite the type of change or modification or its degree, violence has been associated with individualized changes where mental and body changes become viable. It supports an entire account of what happened in the introduced text of interest where the same concept is shared. Within the text, the young boy who was after getting into the forest to learn more about the mysterious woman underwent. Despite the effort and changes or effects, he experienced after he was exposed to a series of events, including murder and other categories of impact that gradual changes people. The same is shared within an entire concept of domestic changes wherein, in most cases, people develop into a problem as a result of the same; they change into numerous classes of different mental and body alterations.
Ruminating Words
Ruminating words also explain or demonstrate how domestic violence among other classes of violence influences or changes people within societies as the majority of the same effect introduces changes such as ruminating words. Ruminating words, thoughts, and events remain one of the extensive ways violence across societies change people as individuals or subjects of the event or account associated with violence are fixed with given specified words. Subjects of the same, in most cases, practice the same as they are fixed to given events that once occurred as a result of violence in society (Nanes. 329).
The same is made viable in the case of the introduced text where a young Nigerian man was eager to learn about a mysterious woman in the forest. After he was exposed to several dreadful events of traumatic events, be became the subject of the effect of the same. The young man kept practicing repeating given words and thoughts as well as events connected to violence where murder he was exposed became the order. Throughout the text, the young boy within the text became a subject of traumatic events associated with ruminating words, which is evident in the shared text. The connection with the text explains the type of effect related to violence at a societal level where victims actively share or exercise-associated eventful words.
Additionally, the same shows a clear connection with earlier shared text about the shadow of war written by Ben, where the shared young boy experiences similar effects cultivated from violence within the specified society. People who have once experienced communal violence in most cases experience mental pictures as a result of events that comes with dreadful experiences of violence. Ruminating words, thoughts, and events in most cases come with numerous effects or accounts of the same such as agitation, hopelessness, and depression.
Each of the same marks or shares a series of negative impacts that shows how individuals of the society are changed. The same as earlier shared remains viable in the shared text of interest where society war and violence changes a young man on similar grounds. Omovo within the text has been experiencing various classes of ruminating words with eventful pictures that demonstrate or show multiple changes he has been subjected to as a result of the violence that happened in society. Dreadful pictures of murder demonstrate a specified influence of how violence in society changes people.
Flashbacks
Flashback of the dreadful event that results from violence in society shows how the same said impact affects individuals as the majority of the victims endures flashbacks. The endured flashback exposes victims of the same into changes that alter their usual pattern of behavior, thus marks how violence in society changes people's experience. Additionally, flashback more often triggers pictures of the same. Therefore, individuals keep recording and recalling over the same thing, thus changes or alter an individual (Standen. 29). The same idea or effect explains how Omovo, a Nigerian boy, was changed by a flashback from the violence he experienced just after learning or exposed to a series of violent events such as murder.
