Crime and violence affect the lives of millions of people in Latin America.

  • El crimen y la violencia afectan la vida de millones de personas en América Latina. Algunos consideran que la desigualdad social es un factor importante que contribuye a los niveles de violencia en América Latina, donde el Estado no logra prevenir el crimen y el crimen organizado toma el control del Estado en áreas donde el Estado no puede ayudar a la sociedad, como en comunidades empobrecidas. En los años posteriores las transiciones del autoritarismo a la democracia, el crimen y la violencia se han convertido en grandes problemas en América Latina. (es)
