| description | The aim of this paper is to analyze the relationship between perceptions of urban citizen culture, fear of crime and victimization. A non-ramdomized sample was obtained from a group of Bogotá's residents whose jobs (i.e.storekeepers, porters) allowed them to get acquainted with members of their community. The research hypothesis stated that both crime victimization and fear of crime were negatively correlated with perceptions of certain dimensions of citizen culture such as compliance with norms and political participation. Results confirmed the hypothesis and showed some implications for social network cohesion |
