Las muertes violentas entre los j\u00f3venes de Argentina se encuentran en un pico de los \u00faltimos diez a\u00f1os, en un patr\u00f3n que parece se\u00f1alar el aumento del crimen organizado en el pa\u00eds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
En 2011, a\u00f1o en el que se encuentran disponibles las cifras completas, 794 personas de entre 15 y 29 a\u00f1os fueron asesinadas, se\u00f1al\u00f3 el diario La Naci\u00f3n<\/a>; la cifra total de 4.935 muertes violentas en ese rango de edad es la m\u00e1s alta desde 2003.<\/p>\n\n\n\n El n\u00famero de homicidios dolosos podr\u00eda ser mucho mayor. Seg\u00fan inform\u00f3 La Naci\u00f3n, otras 1.074 muertes de j\u00f3venes se registraron como \u201cmuerte[s] por agresi\u00f3n externa de intencionalidad desconocida\u201d, pero no como homicidios intencionales.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Un tercio las muertes registradas en 2011 para todos los grupos de edad en esta categor\u00eda fueron el resultado de armas de fuego. Extra\u00f1amente, los suicidios con armas y las muertes accidentales se cuentan por separado.<\/p>\n\n\n\n La violencia juvenil ha estado en la agenda p\u00fablica de Argentina recientemente, tras el asesinato de \u00c1ngeles Rawson<\/a> y Araceli Ramos<\/a>, de 16 y 19 a\u00f1os respectivamente. Mientras que las muertes parecen ser el resultado de ataques individuales, un examen de las cifras pinta un cuadro que podr\u00eda apuntar al aumento de la actividad criminal organizada en el pa\u00eds; un fen\u00f3meno que se ha observado<\/a> durante todo el a\u00f1o.<\/p>\n\n\n\n VEA TAMBI\u00c9N: <\/strong>Cobertura de Argentina<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n En el norte de Argentina, una guerra entre grupos de narcotraficantes<\/a> ha causado recientemente un aumento en los homicidios. La zona ya hab\u00eda registrado el aumento en las tasas de homicidio en los \u00faltimos a\u00f1os<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Son los j\u00f3venes \u2013en particular los hombres\u2013 quienes a menudo act\u00faan como \u201csoldados rasos\u201d y sufren la violencia de las pandillas; un informe a principios de este a\u00f1o<\/a> resalt\u00f3 el papel de los asesinos adolescentes en el occidente de Argentina. Como muestran las cifras, el n\u00famero de hombres que murieron<\/a> por \u201cagresi\u00f3n\u201d es ocho veces mayor que el de las mujeres, mientras que el n\u00famero de casos de hombres j\u00f3venes que murieron por razones \u201cdesconocidas\u201d es casi siete veces mayor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n El desglose de las cifras oficiales tambi\u00e9n plantea la cuesti\u00f3n fundamental de si el alcance de los homicidios de j\u00f3venes est\u00e1 siendo minimizado. Con la categorizaci\u00f3n separada de los suicidios con armas y las muertes accidentales, muchas de las muertes violentas que involucran un arma de fuego que, seg\u00fan los informes de La Naci\u00f3n, est\u00e1n listados como \u201cintencionalidad desconocida\u201d, podr\u00edan ser homicidios.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Las muertes violentas entre los j\u00f3venes de Argentina se encuentran en un pico de los \u00faltimos diez a\u00f1os, en un patr\u00f3n que parece se\u00f1alar el aumento del crimen organizado en el pa\u00eds.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":22,"featured_media":38764,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"newspack_ads_suppress_ads":false,"newspack_popups_has_disabled_popups":false,"newspack_sponsor_sponsorship_scope":"","newspack_sponsor_native_byline_display":"inherit","newspack_sponsor_native_category_display":"inherit","newspack_sponsor_underwriter_style":"inherit","newspack_sponsor_underwriter_placement":"inherit","_EventAllDay":false,"_EventTimezone":"","_EventStartDate":"","_EventEndDate":"","_EventStartDateUTC":"","_EventEndDateUTC":"","_EventShowMap":false,"_EventShowMapLink":false,"_EventURL":"","_EventCost":"","_EventCostDescription":"","_EventCurrencySymbol":"","_EventCurrencyCode":"","_EventCurrencyPosition":"","_EventDateTimeSeparator":"","_EventTimeRangeSeparator":"","_EventOrganizerID":[],"_EventVenueID":[],"_OrganizerEmail":"","_OrganizerPhone":"","_OrganizerWebsite":"","_VenueAddress":"","_VenueCity":"","_VenueCountry":"","_VenueProvince":"","_VenueState":"","_VenueZip":"","_VenuePhone":"","_VenueURL":"","_VenueStateProvince":"","_VenueLat":"","_VenueLng":"","_VenueShowMap":false,"_VenueShowMapLink":false,"_newspack_byline_active":false,"_newspack_byline":"","newspack_hide_updated_date":false,"newspack_show_updated_date":false,"newspack_featured_image_position":"","newspack_post_subtitle":"","newspack_article_summary_title":"Overview:","newspack_article_summary":"","_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[334],"tags":[428,452],"newspack_spnsrs_tax":[],"coauthors":[3847],"class_list":["post-6007","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-noticias-del-dia","tag-argentina-pais","tag-homicidios","entry"],"parsely":{"version":"1.1.0","canonical_url":"https:\/\/insightcrime.org\/es\/noticias\/noticias-del-dia\/homicidios-de-jovenes-en-argentina-apunta-a-aumento-del-crimen-organizado\/","smart_links":{"inbound":0,"outbound":0},"traffic_boost_suggestions_count":0,"meta":{"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","headline":"Homicidios de j\u00f3venes en Argentina apunta a aumento del crimen organizado","url":"http:\/\/insightcrime.org\/es\/noticias\/noticias-del-dia\/homicidios-de-jovenes-en-argentina-apunta-a-aumento-del-crimen-organizado\/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"http:\/\/insightcrime.org\/es\/noticias\/noticias-del-dia\/homicidios-de-jovenes-en-argentina-apunta-a-aumento-del-crimen-organizado\/"},"thumbnailUrl":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/insightcrime.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/es-f817460fe53e7a98f69babd411fede6d.jpg?resize=150%2C150&quality=100&ssl=1","image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/insightcrime.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/es-f817460fe53e7a98f69babd411fede6d.jpg?fit=280%2C169&quality=100&ssl=1"},"articleSection":"Noticias del d\u00eda","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Charles Parkinson"}],"creator":["Charles Parkinson"],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"InSight Crime","logo":"https:\/\/insightcrime.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/logo.png"},"keywords":["argentina","homicidios"],"dateCreated":"2017-03-27T23:56:39Z","datePublished":"2017-03-27T23:56:39Z","dateModified":"2023-04-24T20:33:59Z"},"rendered":"\n\n\n\n\n\n\n","tracker_url":"https:\/\/cdn.parsely.com\/keys\/insightcrime.org\/p.js"},"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":144477,"url":"https:\/\/insightcrime.org\/es\/noticias\/jovenes-rosario-argentina-expuestos-asesinatos\/","url_meta":{"origin":6007,"position":0},"title":"J\u00f3venes en Rosario, Argentina, m\u00e1s expuestos a asesinatos","author":"Laura \u00c1vila","date":"24 de mayo de 2021","format":false,"excerpt":"Los hombres j\u00f3venes, seg\u00fan un reporte, constituyen el mayor n\u00famero de v\u00edctimas de homicidios en Rosario.
