description The objective of this article is to examine the complexities of economic and social change from a global perspective with a focus on Latin American and the Caribbean. The academic literature in this area has emphasized the importance of institutional change as a central factor underlying economic growth over the long term. However the thrust behind this literature has not fully incorporated the relevance of interdependence from a dynamic perspective. Interdependence emphasizes the integral nature of social, economic and institutional transformation over the short, medium and long terms. This article attempts to shed light on central aspects and factors of surrounding crime and development from a multi-dimensional perspective in which the relationship between criminal violence, institutions and interdependence are key factors. An analytical framework is presented in conjunction with an empirical analysis on the impacts of criminal delinquency and criminal violence on the dynamics of economic growth per capita of the global economy, underlining the case of the Latin American and Caribbean region between 1990-2010.

El objetivo de este artículo es adentrarse en las complejidades del cambio económico y social desde una perspectiva global, dando énfasis a la región de América Latina y el Caribe (ALC). La literatura especializada en este campo ha reconocido la importancia del cambio institucional como factor esencial en la explicación del crecimiento económico de largo plazo. No obstante, su narrativa no ha incorporado plenamente la relevancia de la interdependencia desde una perspectiva dinámica, que es una parte integral del cambio social, económico e institucional en el corto, mediano y largo plazo. El artículo intenta dar luz sobre aspectos y factores centrales en este ámbito, a partir de un enfoque multidimensional en donde la relación entre violencia criminal, instituciones e interdependencia es un factor clave. Para ello, se ofrece un marco analítico adecuado a esta lógica, así como un análisis empírico del impacto de la delincuencia y la violencia criminal en la dinámica de crecimiento per cápita de la economía global, subrayando el caso de ALC en el período 1990-2010.

O artigo tenta visibilizar os aspectos e fatores centrais neste âmbito, a partir de um enfoque multidimensional, no qual a relação entre violência criminal, instituições e interdependência é um fator-chave. Para isso, se oferece um marco analítico adequado a esta lógica, assim como uma análise empírica do impacto da delinquência e da violência criminal na dinâmica de crescimento per capita da economia global, destacando o caso de ALC durante o período 1990-2010.
