- rodionos 10y agoI recommend double checking reference tables in Wikipedia. It is conveniently displayed first in search results, however for Sweden: https://www.bra.se/download/18.358de3051533ffea5ea7f2cf/1459417671952/Reported_offences_1950_2015.xls https://www.bra.se/download/18.358de3051533ffea5ea7f2cf/1459... > 305 Completed murder, manslaughter and assault resulting in death. > 9,851,017 Total population = 3.1 per 100000 people
- AdeptusAquinas 10y agoThe differences are due to different definitions of intentional homicide between countries, which is why I would argue a UN study with its own definition is better for comparison than a Swedish and US source.
