Abstract

Roncken & Chacin (2014) analyzed the correspondence between the communicative action and the orientation as well as scope of public policies implemented for citizens’ security by the administration of president Morales in Bolivia since 2006. Their research is relevant because it contributes with the analysis of carefully selected arguments helpful towards not only a better interpretation of the practical implementation but also to an eventual adjustment of the analyzed public policy. This revision does not pretend to discuss the theoretical and/or practical foundations of their research. From an economic perspective, the revision aims to analyze determined aspects of the article to contribute with additional points of view and to propose areas of interest for future interdisciplinary research in topics of citizens’ security.
