The chapters illustrate three channels through which crime might generate poverty, that is, by reducing investment, by introducing assets losses, and by reducing the value of assets remaining in the control of households |

The chapters illustrate three channels through which crime might generate poverty, that is, by reducing investment, by introducing assets losses, and by reducing the value of assets remaining in the control of households SOCIAL SCIENCE / Criminology bisacsh Crime / Economic aspects fast Crime prevention / Economic aspects fast Crime Economic aspects Latin America Congresses Crime prevention Economic aspects Latin America Congresses Wirtschaftstheorie (DE-588)4079351-5 gnd rswk-swf Kriminalität (DE-588)4033178-7 gnd rswk-swf Lateinamerika Lateinamerika (DE-588)4074032-8 gnd rswk-swf (DE-588)1071861417 Konferenzschrift gnd-content Lateinamerika (DE-588)4074032-8 g Kriminalität (DE-588)4033178-7 s Wirtschaftstheorie (DE-588)4079351-5 s 1\p DE-604 Di Tella, Rafael Sonstige (DE-588)120891816 oth Edwards, Sebastian 1953- Sonstige (DE-588)128726997 oth Schargrodsky, Ernesto Sonstige (DE-588)140143637 oth Erscheint auch als Druckausgabe 0-226-15374-6 Erscheint auch als Druckausgabe 978-0-226-15374-2 http://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&db=nlabk&AN=336766 Aggregator Volltext 1\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk |
