Oro för brott : en kvantitativ studie om hur sårbarhet, socialt kapital och främlingsfientlighet påverkar oro för brott i SverigeHedlin, Malou January 2024 (has links)
Fear of crime (FOC) negatively affects the individual's everyday life and quality of life through avoidance behaviors and reduced informal social control, which in turn can increase the risk of crime. In Sweden, concern about crime is seen as an upward trend, despite a decrease in self-reported crime vulnerability since 2018. Using quantitative data, collected from the SOM institute, this study examines how xenophobia and social capital affect concern about crime in relation to gender, age and income. The theoretical framework used is vulnerability thesis, social capital and stereotypes along with xenophobia, with the conclusion that women are more fearful than men, that high social capital reduces fear, and that xenophobic attitudes create more fear of crime. The results highlight the importance of social factors in understanding fear of crime and the need to promote social capital to reduce this fear.
