Resumo: The economic analysis of crime, security and violence is based uponthe original article by Gary S. Becker whose title is Crime and Punishment: aneconomic approach. The central piece of Becker’s theoretical model is theeconomic reasoning of comparing gains and costs from de individual’s point ofview. Becker assumes that the criminal activity is the result of some socialparameters and then searches for an optimal situation from the social viewpoint,which is defined as the situation of minimum total cost. Crime, security andviolence have acquired such an importance in the 21st Century that a reflection onthe Becker’s model is required in order to give scientific basis to developing and adopting more effective public policies. This article aims to lend a hand to thatreflection by presenting a significant set of inquiries.

Becker, intitulado Crime andPunishment: an economic approach. A peça central do modelo de Becker é oraciocínio econômico de comparação de ganhos e de custos do ponto de vista doindivíduo. Becker considera a atividade criminosa como o resultado de umasérie de parâmetros sociais e busca a situação ótima do ponto de vista dasociedade, considerada como sendo a situação de custo total mínimo. O crime,a violência e a segurança atingem tamanha importância no século XXI quese torna oportuno refletir sobre o modelo de Becker, principalmente quandose considera a necessidade de informar cientificamente a formulação de políticaspúblicas mais eficazes. Este artigo se propõe a contribuir para essa reflexão,apresentando um conjunto de questionamentos relevantes.UFPR2007-12-14info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.ufpr.br/economia/article/view/996710.5380/re.v33i2.9967Revista de Economia; v. 33, n. 2 (2007)2316-93970556-578210.5380/re.v33i2reponame:Revista de Economia (Curitiba.
