Durante el proceso electoral federal 2017-2018 se registró el asesinato de 48 precandidatos y candidatos en todo el territorio nacional. ¿A qué se debe esta ola de asesinatos políticos sin precedente en la historia de México? ¿Los asesinatos deben atribuirse a condiciones de competencia electoral, o más bien pueden vincularse con actividades de organizaciones criminales? Usando una base de datos original en que registramos el número de candidatos asesinados por municipio, sometemos a prueba ambas teorías complementarias y encontramos que los homicidios no están relacionados con elecciones cerradas o competidas, sino que están ligados a la presencia de organizaciones del crimen organizado y al nivel de violencia criminal en cada municipio. En algunos estados, como Puebla y Guerrero, la evidencia estadística también sugiere que los candidatos asesinados fueron el blanco de ataques de organizaciones criminales.]]></p></abstract>
<abstract abstract-type="short" xml:lang="en"><p><![CDATA[Abstract: The 2018 electoral process in México was not only the largest electoral process in Mexico&#8217;s history by the number of positions to be filled, but also it was the most violent in recent history. Since the beginning of the electoral campaigns until the election day, 48 candidates were assassinated. What explains this unprecedented wave of political assassinations? Are they caused by a close electoral competition or by criminal violence? By using an original database in which we recorded the number of candidates assassinated by municipality, we tested both competing theories and found that the killings are not related to competitive elections, but instead they are linked to the presence of criminal organizations and to the level of criminal violence in each municipality. In some states, such as Puebla and Guerrero, statistical evidence also suggests that the murdered candidates were targeted by criminal organizations.]]></p></abstract>
