Palabras clave :	Sociología;Crime;Fear of crime;Victimization;Social cohesion;Feeling of insecurity
Editorial :	Pontifícia Universidade Católica do Rio Grande do Sul
Descripción :	"While some studies suggest that the nature of one's interactions with the community influences one's perceived risk of criminal victimization, only a few pieces of research have tested this association in Brazil. Using four previously existing Brazilian victimization surveys, we conducted logistic models to examine whether social ties and social cohesion are associated with perceived risk and fear of crime. The results showed that only in some contexts did social cohesion manifest an association with fear of crime. Specifically, two components of social cohesion may be relevant for this purpose: trusting neighbours and getting help; and the ability to distinguish neighbours from strangers in the street."
