CADENA, Edel y GARROCHO, Carlos. Geography of terror: Homicides and enforced disappearances in the municipalities of Mexico 2006-2017. Pap. poblac [online]. 2019, vol.25, n.102, pp.219-273. Epub 25-Nov-2020. ISSN 2448-7147. https://doi.org/10.22185/24487147.2019.102.37.
The objectives of this work are i) unveil the dynamics of homicides and enforced disappearances in Mexico, its states and in the 2,458 municipalities of the country; ii) discover the spatial pattern of homicides and disappearances in the municipal scale of Mexico in terms of its intensity and agglomeration in the territory; iii) Identify priority regions of care to prevent homicides and forced disappearances; and, iv) Explore the statistical relationship at the municipal level between homicides and forced disappearances with official indicators (or estimated from official sources) of social marginalization, social backwardness, poverty, and inequality. The period of analysis was from 2006 to 2017, in order to cover a full decade and practically two six-year terms: from the declaration of the “War against Narco” until the year prior to the electoral process of the second presidential period. The analysis was done with conventional and spatial statistics methods with 99 per cent confidence level.
