Victimization in Brazil Research

Brazil is one of the affected nations with a high number of criminals and the drug addicts. With the increasing criminal actions in the countries, the level of victimisation increases, various stakeholders are asked to intervene and look for the most appropriate methods, applicable in solving the puzzle (Soares 2011). However, the attention is drawn toward the criminal decisions in the Latin American nations such as Brazil, but the stakeholders fail to be concerned with the idea of who are the most likely individuals to be the crime victims. The issues of victimisations are discussed due to the point of view, which includes criminology and sociology; the frameworks are therefore created about the research taken in Brazil, which is responsible for identifying the individuals who possibly fall to be the victims of crime in the nation.

Lifestyle and the opportunity models are some of the motivating forces into developing the interest to have adequate information about the level of victimisation in Brazil (D’Abreu 2016). In the world’s population, Brazil has the fifth largest people in the world; out of the highest community in Brazil, teenagers occupy the largest community exposing the individuals to the most top risks to crime practices (Rosenblatt 2016). Most of the individuals convinced and recruited into harmful activities such as violent criminal actions and the addiction to drugs are the youth. The rate of peer influences among the teenagers is high, therefore; most of the individuals find themselves owning arms purposefully for criminal activities. The studies show that an individual under the influence of drugs such as marijuana and cocaine has the high rate of hallucination, therefore, taking part in illegal activities may not be considered as a big deal thus homicide, and violent killing must be typical among the drug addicts.

Victimization in Brazil is mostly determined by two main factors, which include lifestyle model and the opportunity model (Murray et al. Secondly, the citizen matches with the criminal who later decide whether to commit the crime or spare the individual. Therefore this activity also expresses that an individual at the highest risk of being a crime victim has to establish some relationship with the criminals for the considerations if at all the individual has no ability to take care of his wealth. The lifestyle and the opportunity models that describe the possible victimisation are also extended to the GP models. In the permanent extension, both games are modified wherein the first participation, several types of individuals who are the potential targets by the criminals are exposed while the second part displays the fundamental matching processes between the criminals and the citizens due to the increasing number of offenders in Brazil (Cerquiera 2016).

The name of offender is increased day by day in Brazil, which shows the kind of risk an individual is exposed to within the community where they live. The other forms of criminal activities and violence have also increased thus creating a worrying environment for the individuals in the society (Murray et al. For instance, in the 1990s the rate of victimisation in Brazil had increased in the robbery and sexual assault criminal events. The number of the illegal activities increased with the most significant percentage of the victimised individuals. The statistics have shown that out of three women in Brazil one of them has been a victim of violence. The research was carried out, and a report developed which displayed the information attained from the review and the provided questioners.

The relationship between homicide and income levels among the individuals are not established yet, but the homicide practices are mainly experienced in the city neighbourhoods with the with the lower income. The youth violence is also some of the frequent victimisation experienced in Brazil. The rate of violence among the youths has increased with men becoming the individuals highly exposed to death resulting from the youth violence. Even though homicide might be the most reason the teenagers lose their lives in the line with criminal activities, the disorder also leads to the most significant percentage of victimisation (Cerquiera 2016). The youth violence in Brazil mainly result from the continuous drug and substance abuse which promotes various criminal violence among the individuals; the substance abuse may lead to other risk factors such as theft which also exposes the youth to mob justice as the victimisation to the criminal activities.
