Abstract(s)
The paper discusses the implications of the security factor in the regional development
in Algarve region. Considering the goal of sustainable development and growth, some
variables related to criminality at regional level have been observed and compared to
the national values. The obtained data bases was applied in a methodological essay to
search for significant statistical correlations between criminal registers and a set of social
and economic indicators, namely: unemployment, internal regional product at mp
and cp, regional added value, population density, entered legalised citizens and visiting
foreign citizens. This study, developed at regional level, reports an observation period
from 1995 and is based on the bibliographic support kindly supplied by the Cabinet of
Legislative Politics and Planning in Ministry of Justice.
