Delito y prevención del delito en la Argentina
by Daniel Fernández, Mariano Ciafardini
Description
This book documents more than two decades of innovative work carried out by the Directorate of Criminal Policy, of the Ministry of Justice of the Nation, in what was the first serious effort to generate the measurement instruments to be able to make precise diagnoses about the dimension and evaluation of insecurity in different regions of the country.
In an age where the mass media and social networks seem to focus the public debate on insecurity, statistical data and victimization studies come to shed light on a reality plagued by assumptions and prejudices that are based on punitive demagoguery and the stigmatization of the poor and foreigners as evils that afflict Latin American societies. In this sense, the work represents a mandatory reading for the implementation of a statistical systematization of the crime phenomenon, the importance of conducting victimization studies and the development of plans, programs and projects aimed at citizen participation in the area.
There are many questions that remain, that is, many investigations and interventions still to be carried out. But if we now have more questions than answers, we owe it in part to the conclusions presented by the authors of this book.
