Описание:This article summarizes social, demographic and other environmental characteristicsof voluntary manslaughters that occurred in Costa Rica during the 1998-1999period, based on guilty verdicts given by the justice courts. It is emphasized thatmost of the offenders and the victims were male, which is associated with the linkbetween masculinity and violence, as well as some other characteristics of theoffenders.
