Abstract

The main objective of this paper is to propose an analytical organization of how studies on the "fear of crime" are structured in academic production, with emphasis on the Latin American one. The theme has already been the subject of important literature reviews, but, in this work, the way authors construct fear as an object of research will be the key element of this new framework. The research was done through a methodological strategy called snowball sampling. Its major result is the use of emotion as the analytical resource capable of structuring the works of disparate contexts in the same organization.
