Caracterización de la oferta del crimen en Colombia 2010-2017

Abstract

Crime is a highly complex social phenomenon. Even though crime is a highly complex social phenomenon. Even though a diverse approach from multiple sciences has been necessary for its comprehension, the orthodox approach remains as one of the best approaches for explaining the medium behaviour of the phenomenon. This article's purpose is to characterise the criminal offer in Colombia and its regions for a better understanding of it. For that, this article counts with geo-spatial and descriptive statistic analysis of the main variables around felonies from the classic crime economy theory and its most recent applications. The results suggest that crime and its behaviour have not only mutated in these recent years but that it is not homogenous in the whole territory given the diverse conditions of these.
