| description | Latin America is one of the most violent regions in the world, and since this phenomenon occurs more frequently in urban and consolidated areas, cities are the space where urban violence is evident as one of its main urban problems. Indeed, violence and the city establish the bases to define public action regarding citizen security policies. However, despite the actions undertaken by the relevant entities in terms of citizen security, there is no evidence of variation or improvement in the results obtained from public policies. The objective of this research is to identify the factors that influence the failure of citizen security policies from the design of policies, their objectives, and instruments. It is proposed as a hypothesis that the hierarchical governance mode, in which there is little articulation between state and non-state actors, influences the design of public policies and their achievement. Methodologically, the analysis of the Metropolitan District of Quito is proposed as a case study, based on a nested model for analysis of the design of policies. The failure of security policies is determined through the causal determination of the hierarchical governance mode. |

América Latina es una de las regiones más violentas del mundo, y en virtud de que este fenómeno sucede con mayor frecuencia en las zonas urbanas y consolidadas, las ciudades son el espacio donde se evidencia la violencia como uno de sus principales problemas urbanos. La violencia y la ciudad consolidan las bases para definir la acción pública referente a las políticas de seguridad ciudadana. Sin embargo, a pesar de las distintas acciones emprendidas por las entidades pertinentes en cuanto a seguridad ciudadana, no se evidencia variación y mejora en los resultados obtenidos de las políticas públicas. El objetivo de esta investigación es identificar los factores que influyen en la falla de las políticas de seguridad ciudadana desde el diseño de las políticas, sus objetivos e instrumentos. Se propone como hipótesis que el modo de gobernanza jerárquico, en el que se evidencia una escasa articulación entre actores estatales y no estatales, influye en el diseño de políticas públicas y su consecución. Metodológicamente se propone el análisis del Distrito Metropolitano de Quito como estudio de caso, a partir de un modelo anidado para análisis del diseño de las políticas. Se determina la falla de políticas de seguridad a través de la determinación causal del modo de gobernanza jerárquica.
