The crime Kuznets curve
We document the existence of a Crime Kuznets Curve in US states since the 1970s. As income levels have risen, crime has followed an inverted U-shaped pattern, first increasing and then dropping. The Crime Kuznets Curve is not explained by income inequality. In fact, we show that during the sample pe...

A medida que los niveles de ingreso han aumentado, el crimen ha seguido una trayectoria de U invertida, incrementándose inicialmente y después cayendo. La Curva de Kuznets del crimen no está explicada por la desigualdad del ingreso. De hecho, durante nuestro periodo muestral, la desigualdad ha crecido de forma monótona con el ingreso, descartando la presencia de una Curva de Kuznets tradicional. Nuestro resultado es robusto a la inclusión de un conjunto grande de controles usados frecuentemente en la literatura para explicar la incidencia del crimen, además de efectos fijos de estado y año. La Curva es también evidente en especificaciones no paramétricas. La Curva de Kuznets del Crimen existe para crímenes contra la propiedad y algunas categorías de crimen violento.33 páginasapplication/pdfengUniversidad de los Andes, Facultad de Economía, CEDEDocumentos CEDE No. 16 Abril de 2014https://ideas.repec.org/p/col/000089/011012.htmlThe crime Kuznets curveLa curva de Kuznets del crimenDocumento de trabajoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/workingPaperhttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_8042http://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a85Texthttps://purl.org/redcol/resource_type/WPCrime cuznets curveIncome inequalityNon-parametric Kernel analysisDesigualdad económica - Investigaciones - Estados UnidosEconomía del trabajo - Investigaciones - Estados UnidosMercado laboral - Investigaciones - Estados UnidosK42, D63Facultad de EconomíaPublicationORIGINALdcede2014-16.pdfdcede2014-16.pdfapplication/pdf1851941https://repositorio.uniandes.edu.co/bitstreams/6def6d11-7fcf-44fc-8eec-fa4e609e90ef/download22c05f324616cb025a8d1eb970ea9397MD51THUMBNAILdcede2014-16.pdf.jpgdcede2014-16.pdf.jpgIM Thumbnailimage/jpeg8219https://repositorio.uniandes.edu.co/bitstreams/e99a7923-3339-4f2b-99e1-7625a14bec4f/downloadaf9e8201c40fa43a2f64e476f323ab1bMD55TEXTdcede2014-16.pdf.txtdcede2014-16.pdf.txtExtracted texttext/plain129131https://repositorio.uniandes.edu.co/bitstreams/96c073eb-8e80-4a87-a443-64d2df740fdf/download9ebdcd8776ebe167524cab6cd91cb35cMD541992/8488oai:repositorio.uniandes.edu.co:1992/84882024-06-04 15:32:56.297http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/open.accesshttps://repositorio.uniandes.edu.coRepositorio institucional Sénecaadminrepositorio@uniandes.edu.co |
