Abstract

En este trabajo se estiman algunos de los costos asociados a la criminalidad y la violencia en Uruguay. El método utilizado es el de la contabilidad de costos. Entre los costos considerados se incluyen costos de seguridad y prevención del delito, de justicia, reclusión y rehabilitación de reclusos, costos de bienes robados, costos de salud y por pérdida de vidas a consecuencia de la violencia, y costos asociados a la pérdida de tiempo productivo en prisión de los reclusos. Para esto se ha utilizado una variedad de fuentes de información y metodologías. Aun cuando se han cubierto un rango importante de costos, no se ha abarcado el universo de los mismos debido a limitaciones de información. Por tanto, las estimaciones deben interpretarse como una cota mínima. El costo total estimado para 2010 alcanza el 3,1% del producto interno bruto (PIB) de Uruguay.
