Abstract

LLANOS, Luis Felipe; RIVAS-TOVAR, Luis Arturo; LAMBARRY, Fernando  and  TRUJILLO, Mara Maricela. The effectiveness of the state police in Mexico. Perf. latinoam. [online]. 2018, vol.26, n.52. ISSN 0188-7653.  https://doi.org/10.18504/pl2652-015-2018.

The objective of the investigation is to study the effectiveness of Mexican state police through the impact of organizational design and the development of the human factor. For this, the method was based on multivariate causal analysis. The results indicate that the specialization of police functions, lack of agents, infiltration of crime, lack of loyalty and negligence are statistically significant in their effectiveness. Therefore, an index is proposed, considering the number of homicides, stolen auto insured, citizen perception of insecurity and citizen rating of police action, which can serve to improve the effectiveness of the police.

Keywords : Effectiveness of the Mexican police; organizational development; human development; state police; Mexico.
