when using expressions like "right wing populism", can we use the preposition 'in' before it? [duplicate]
What’s the difference between "rise in" and "rise of"? Specifically, I am looking at the sentence:
The rise __ juvenile crime is attributed to three factors.
Which preposition should I choose?
The rise in juvenile crime is attributed to three factors.
This indicates that there has been an increase and has a reasonably neutral connotation.
The rise of juvenile crime is attributed to three factors.
This could indicate simply that there has been an increase, but also applies some anthropomorphism or, at least, animation to the object.
