Perspectives
Political Ideology in the Disguise of Academic Literature
In Jane Tompkins’ essay “At the Buffalo Museum, June 1988,” she theorizes (420) at one point in her museum experience, that the observing of museum representations of acts of violence is a form of self-gratification and vicarious identifying for some observers. Coaxing the reader to narrowly form their own opinion, which strongly influences the reader towards a conclusion that violence observed begets violence and in restricting the viewing of violence could result in a better society. However, the idea that violence observed causes more violence is not valid; moreover, restricting violence in media infringes on Constitutional rights. The theory that violence observed causes more violence is debunked in recent video game research
