Consumo de medios, Miedo al crimen, PunitividadResumen
La literatura científica ha estudiado ampliamente los impactos de los medios de comunicación y, más recientemente, de las redes sociales en las diferentes percepciones de los individuos. Una de las relaciones más probadas empíricamente desde los estudios de Gerbner y Gross (1976) es entre el consumo de medios (por ejemplo, televisión) y el miedo al crimen. Además, aunque menos común, los estudios también han demostrado que el apoyo a políticas criminales más duras puede derivar del consumo de noticias. Sin embargo, la cultura del miedo también puede tener un efecto relevante en la búsqueda de respuestas más punitivas. Así, este artículo, a través de una revisión bibliográfica, explora, por un lado, la relación entre el consumo de medios (sociales) y la punitividad, y, por otro lado, el papel mediador del miedo en esa relación. Se espera, por tanto, llenar un importante vacío en la literatura científica del área.
