Abstract

We explore how crime victimization affects two of the main dimensions of social capital: trust and participation in social groups. Using a large database that includes many Latin American countries, we find that victimization lowers trust, especially in other people and the police. However, participation in social groups is increased as a result of this event. These findings suggest that the net effect of victimization on social capital is miscalculated unless all of its dimensions are taken into account.

犯罪受害者是否对社会组织的信任度较低但参与度较高？

我们探讨了犯罪受害如何影响社会资本的两个主要方面：信任和参与社会团体。通过使用包括许多拉丁美洲国家在内的大型数据库，我们发现，受害会降低信任度，尤其是对他人和警察的信任度。然而，社会群体的参与度却因这一事件而提高。这些发现表明，除非考虑到受害对社会资本的所有影响，否则受害对社会资本的净影响会被误估。

期刊介绍： Economics of Governance aims to foster research on governance at many levels: corporations, non-profit organizations, local and federal governments, and international organizations. Applications include the internal organization of firms, corporate governance, the private provision of public goods, local public policies, relations across levels of government, public expenditure and regulation, and problems of credibility and enforcement of international agreements. Though the journal aims to contribute to general economic knowledge, it is also interested in applying theoretical and empirical insights to important current topics. The journal is open to many approaches, including formal theoretical analysis, systematic observation, simulation, and empirical studies. Interdisciplinary contributions by economists, organizational scholars, and political scientists are encouraged. Officially cited as: Econ Gov
