Strategies to combat organized crime in border areas: analysis and improvement of security projects

Abstract

To effectively analyze strategies to combat organized crime in border areas, it is crucial to establish a chronological process that covers information from security planning instruments. This involves examining the implications of organized crime in these areas over different government periods. The fundamental purpose of this research lies in analyzing the strategies used to confront organized crime in border areas, evaluating both its strengths and limitations. The research is quantitative, descriptive, correlational and cross-sectional, the instrument for data collection was the questionnaire that was submitted to expert judgment. The results show that there is a positive correlation between the variables organized crime, international cooperation and surveillance technology (0.997**), which underlines the importance of global collaboration and the use of technological tools in the fight against cross-border crime and a correlation negative inverse (-0.381) between the variables organized crime and presence of security forces, indicating the need to strengthen security measures in these areas to counteract criminal activity. These findings provide a solid foundation to inform and improve security strategies in border areas, with the goal of reducing the incidence of organized crime and better protecting affected communities.
