Resumo: This article empirically assesses the determinants of homicide rates in the male population in Brazil. The study approaches the subject with panel data with fixed effect and random effect by Federation Units in the period 1993-2014. Using other explanatory variables, the impact of unemployment on the homicide rates of this population is discussed. Based on the two panel models, fixed effect and random effect, the results support the hypothesis that increases in the unemployment rate produce increases in homicide rates in the male population. The variables, degree of informality, percentage of income earned by people belonging to the poorest 50% group and expenditure on education and culture are also statistically significant in the study. In general, the worked variables confirmed the expected results.

El estudio aborda el tema con datos de panel con efecto fijo y efecto aleatorio por Unidades de la Federación en el período 1993-2014. Utilizando otras variables explicativas, se discute el impacto del desempleo en las tasas de homicidio de esta población. Con base en los dos modelos de panel, efecto fijo y efecto aleatorio, los resultados apoyan la hipótesis de que los aumentos en la tasa de desempleo producen aumentos en las tasas de homicidio en la población masculina. Las variables, grado de informalidad, porcentaje de ingresos obtenidos por personas pertenecientes al grupo más pobre del 50% y gasto en educación y cultura también son estadísticamente significativas en el estudio. En general, las variables trabajadas confirmaron los resultados esperados.      Este artigo avalia, empiricamente, os fatores determinantes das taxas de homicídios na população do sexo masculino no Brasil. O estudo aborda o assunto com dados em painel com efeito fixo e efeito aleatório por Unidades da Federação no período 1993-2014. Discute-se, utilizando outras variáveis explicativas, o impacto do desemprego nas taxas de homicídios dessa população. Com base nos dois modelos em painel, efeito fixo e efeito aleatório, os resultados atestam a hipótese de que aumentos na taxa de desemprego produzem elevações nas taxas de homicídios da população masculina. As variáveis, grau de informalidade, percentual da renda adquirida pelas pessoas pertencentes ao grupo dos 50% mais pobres e a despesa com educação e cultura também são estatisticamente significantes no estudo. De um modo geral, as variáveis trabalhadas confirmaram os resultados esperados.Research, Society and Development2021-09-27info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/2080810.33448/rsd-v10i12.20808Research, Society and Development; Vol. 10 No. 12; e474101220808Research, Society and Development; Vol. 10 Núm. 12; e474101220808Research, Society and Development; v. 10 n. 12; e4741012208082525-3409reponame:Research, Society and Developmentinstname:Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)instacron:UNIFEIporhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/20808/18468Copyright (c) 2021 Tito Belchior Silva Moreira; Lacerda Sipriano Eliashttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessMoreira, Tito Belchior Silva Elias, Lacerda Sipriano 2021-11-14T20:26:51Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/20808Revistahttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/indexPUBhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/oairsd.articles@gmail.com2525-34092525-3409opendoar:2024-01-17T09:40:21.042084Research, Society and Development - Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)false
