Abstract

Un tema que ocupa un lugar importante dentro de la opinión pública es el problema de la inseguridad, esta preocupación se encuentra en aumento en las últimas décadas en nuestro país, y la región NOA no es ajena a ello según diferentes estudios actuales sobre el tema. El presente trabajo plantea el análisis de distintas hipótesis causantes de la percepción de inseguridad, entre ellas el efecto de los medios de comunicación, la calidad de instituciones policiales y judiciales, la victimización de los hogares entre otras. Los resultados indican que la principal variable explicativa de la percepción de inseguridad es la victimización, junto con la mala calidad institucional, mientras que los medios de comunicación no parecen tener un rol importante. Por otro lado, se analiza como el hecho de sufrir un delito cambia las acciones preventivas de los individuos, encontrando que los mismos tratan de mitigar los riesgos de sufrir el mismo delito que sufrieron con anterioridad, lo que concuerda por cierto con el hecho de que aquellos que sufrieron delitos sienten miedo de sufrir el mismo delito, más que otros delitos.
