Abstract

En el Perú no existe un estudio completo y exhaustivo sobre el fenómeno de la violencia contra la vida y la propiedad. La falta de información ordenada y sistematizada que permita cuantificar su magnitud, estimar su impacto económico y evaluar el funcionamiento de las instituciones vinculadas a la prevención, control y sanción del delito, impide una mejor comprensión del problema y limita la definición e implementación de políticas adecuadas para enfrentar este tipo de violencia. El informe que se presenta a continuación consta de tres capítulos. El primero presenta un panorama de la magnitud de la violencia intencional contra la persona--número de defunciones y lesiones por violencia intencional según sexo, edad y causa externa--en Lima Metropolitana y a nivel nacional, a partir de la información disponible en el Ministerio de Salud y la Policía Nacional del Perú. Debido a que las cifras disponibles en el Perú son de mala calidad y, por lo tanto, poco confiables, han sido corregidas considerando los mejores supuestos. Los resultados, si bien intentan reflejar la realidad de la mejor manera posible, carecen de exactitud, pues la información estadística utilizada como base para todo el análisis es muy deficiente.
