A STUDY ON COLLECTIVE VIOLENCE WITH RESPECT TO RISING TREND OF MOB LYNCHING

Abstract

This research paper attempts to deduce the motives as to why mob justice flourishes due to poor law enforcement, and how such thriving will establish a state of ochlocracy, and thus replace government with anarchy. It also aims to determine the responsibility of the State in monitoring certain practices. Henceforth, a deep study on collective violence in relation to the rising trend of mob lynching is very pertinent.
