Abstract

This article presents the results from a survey about people’s perception of responsibilities in relation to security. Background studies conducted in Costa Rica were firstly reviewed. Secondly, the results of the survey about security engaged by the Instituto de Estudios Sociales en Población (IDESPO) and Escuela de Sociología de la Universidad Nacional (UNA) were analyzed to gauge the general perception about whom is considered the responsible for the security, and what actions have been undertaken by people in order to live in a safe place. Finally, the different consequences of fear in the creation of political sociability in Costa Rica were discussed.
