Scope and Contents

The document discusses resolutions and insights from the McCall Forum Conference workshops on violence and the urban crisis. Recommendations include implementing uniform laws on human welfare, supporting fair housing, and reprogramming societal input to create better human beings.

The document also addresses violence and education, highlighting the need to abolish corporal punishment in schools and preserve programs like Head Start. The American tradition is also discussed, focusing on the conflict of values and lack of social control as preconditions to civil disorder and mass violence. Recommendations include promoting alternative forms of education and improving communication between adversaries.
