Abstract
MORENO PONCE, Jorge Adriano. Insecurity as a Process of "Territorialization": A Theoretical and Conceptual Approach. Desafíos [online]. 2016, vol.28, n.2, pp.145-176. ISSN 0124-4035. https://doi.org/http://dx.doi.Org/10.12804/desafios28.2.2016.04.
The territorialization of insecurity as a process and associated with the urban sector seen as critical or vulnerable is directly related to the temporal appropriation of phenomena such as insecurity and crime. From such a perspective defined as "the territorialization of insecurity", and through a comparative exercise in some areas in latin America, Europe and United States, the articleproposes a theoretical and conceptual approach that embraces the systemic and multicausal connotation of the process of the territorialization of insecurity. In addition, it visualizes the dynamics and scope of this process from the perspectives of the subject, criminal structures, geographic space and its surroundings.
Keywords : Security; citizen; insecurity; territorialization; criminality.
