Theoretical approach to the product effect of chain-linking personal insecurity-widespread mistrust-community crime differences

Abstract

This article discusses and proposes a theoretical link between personal insecurity, generalized mistrust and community crime differences. Hence it is divided into two sections: in the first, the introduction and the theoretical and analytical framework, the sociological and political concepts that are used, their scope and interconnection are presented. In the second, the central idea of this contribution is exposed: the possible existence of a theoretical functional phenomenon called personal insecurity effect-generalized mistrust-community delinquency. Finally, some conclusions are offered.
