Based on Becker�s theoretical model, the present paper estimates econometrically the determinants of the crime rate in Argentina for the 1990-1999 period.

The unemployment rate and the income inequality indicator were found to have a positive and significant effects on the crime rate.El presente documento estima econométricamente los determinantes de la tasa de criminalidad en Argentina para el período 1990-1999 basándose en el modelo teórico de Becker.
