TY - JOUR PY - 2022// TI - Fear of crime and Roma integration JO - Journal of policy modeling A1 - Daskalopoulou, Irene A1 - Karakitsiou, Athanasia A1 - Malliou, Christina SP - 344 EP - 360 VL - 44 IS - 2 N2 - We analyze the majority's perceptions of Roma as a socio-cultural and crime threat and their evaluations of two key integration measures namely schooling and financial allowances. Following a fear of crime model we test for the effect of community context, disorder/safety, and victimization as the critical parameters of these perceptions and evaluations. Empirical estimations involve a cross-section dataset for Greece and multilevel model techniques.

RESULTS verify community context, disorder and victimization as important fear and integration predictors that interact with the socio-economic status of individuals and regional crime rates.
