Abstract:

To analyze the variation of the spatial pattern of the homicide rate in Brazil, between 2000 and 2015. Ecological study by micro-regions of homicidesthe Mortality Information System, using the Moran indexes, and clusters of critical areas (95% confidence). Rate increased by 6% (to 29.1/100,000 inhabitants (95% CI 28.9, 29.4), and in 80% (n=422) of the micro regions between 2000 and 2015. The number of areas with high rate (>38.2/100,000) increased 2.7 fold. In 2000, the areas with the highest rate were concentrated in Pernambuco, São Paulo, Mato Grosso and Rio de Janeiro; by 2015, it will occupy the majority of states in the North and Northeast. Critical areas are in the coastal of the Northeast and borders of Pará and Maranhão in the Legal Amazon. The lowest rate (up to 19.1/100,000) are present in the micro regions of São Paulo and Santa Catarina, with less critical clusters in the Southeast and South regions. There is a movement to reorganize violence. The homicide has expanded into the national territory, with displacement between regions, mainly towards the poorest, which exhibit more critical areas in several scenarios, such as state borders and the coast. Conversely, there is an expressive contraction of homicide in states of regions of high development, with the presence of less critical areas.
