摘要

呼吁对犯罪的恐惧和被感知的受害风险是获得民众支持的一种众所周知的政治策略。虽然对犯罪和感知风险的恐惧可能源于脆弱性和过去的受害经历,但尽管犯罪率下降,但高度的恐惧和感知风险促使研究人员调查对犯罪和认知受害风险的恐惧的其他来源。我们使用了来自马尼拉大都会1200户家庭的调查数据来检验这样一种假设,即感知的受害风险可以通过广泛的不安全感来预测,其中包括财务、就业、教育、健康、备灾和权利保护方面的不安全。多元回归用于衡量变量效应。我们的研究结果表明,广泛的不安全感会显著影响感知到的受害风险。其他可靠的预测因素包括过去的受害情况、地方政府支出以及年龄和性别等社会因素,但没有一个能像广泛的不安全感那样强烈。这些发现表明,人们对公共安全的看法不仅取决于严格的治安管理,还取决于经济机会、人力资本发展和整体福祉。这篇文章证实了对犯罪和受害恐惧的扩散来源的初步研究。它为在快速变化的社会经济和政治格局中追求社会和谐与发展提供了政治和经济优先事项。JEL:Z13、Z18

Broad Insecurity and Perceived Victimization Risk
Appealing to fear of crime and perceived risk of victimization is a known political strategy for gaining popular support. While fear of crime and perceived risk may stem from vulnerability and past experiences of victimization, high levels of fear and perceived risk, despite declining crime rates, had prompted researchers to investigate other sources of fear of crime and perceived victimization risk. We used survey data from 1,200 households in Metro Manila to test the hypothesis that perceived risk of victimization may be predicted by broad insecurity, which encompasses insecurities in finances, employment, education, health, disaster preparedness and rights protection. Multivariate regression is used to measure variable effects. Our results showed that broad insecurity significantly influences perceived risk of victimization. Other reliable predictors included past victimization, local government spending and social identifiers such as age and gender, but none was as strong as broad insecurity. These findings suggest that perceptions of public safety depend not only on tough policing, but also economic opportunities, human capital development and overall wellbeing. This article corroborates budding research on the diffuse sources of fear of crime and victimization. It informs political and economic prioritization in pursuit of social harmony and development amidst a rapidly changing socioeconomic and political landscape. JEL: Z13, Z18
