| Summary: | The note shows the history of the public debate on violence and crime and the need to resume the debate at its previous level, addressing the topic not only as a matter of public safety but also the health problem. It reaffirms that it is necessary to address the social context where young people kill each other, creating a hated and dehumanized enemy. It criticizes the polarization in progress in the country, in which the possibility of having compassion for the suffering of the other disappeared. Initiatives that can help addressing the spread of the warrior ethos are suggested, consolidating public safety based on citizenship. Also, it recalls that facing violence is to confront the asymmetries caused by authoritarian dominations, whether by the state or by criminal factions.
