Abstract

ABSTRACT Recent literature has demonstrated that the War on Drugs policies had different consequences for different population groups. Despite this, female homicide victimisation resulting from such policies remains an underexplored subject of study. This paper examines the asymmetrical patterns of female homicides in the Mexican states that implemented the 2006 War on Drugs. A group-based trajectory analysis was undertaken, complemented by a spatial analysis in order to identify clusters with common behaviour. Our findings show that states that actively enforced the War on Drugs policy experienced higher and more concentrated levels of female homicidal victimisation.

墨西哥女性凶杀受害者:基于群体的轨迹和空间研究

摘要最近的文献表明，禁毒战争政策对不同的人口群体产生了不同的后果。尽管如此，此类政策导致的女性凶杀案受害者仍然是一个未充分探索的研究主题。本文研究了2006年实施禁毒战争的墨西哥各州女性凶杀案的不对称模式。进行了基于群体的轨迹分析，并辅以空间分析，以确定具有共同行为的集群。我们的研究结果表明，积极执行禁毒战争政策的州经历了更高、更集中的女性杀人受害水平。

期刊介绍： Global Crime is a social science journal devoted to the study of crime broadly conceived. Its focus is deliberately broad and multi-disciplinary and its first aim is to make the best scholarship on crime available to specialists and non-specialists alike. It endorses no particular orthodoxy and draws on authors from a variety of disciplines, including history, sociology, criminology, economics, political science, anthropology and area studies. The editors welcome contributions on any topic relating to crime, including organized criminality, its history, activities, relations with the state, its penetration of the economy and its perception in popular culture.
