- Does violent crime scare tourists away? Panel data evidence from 32 mexican states Nicolás Corona Economía y Finanzas C33 C36 O17 O54 panel data The scaling up of violent crime in México is often characterized as detrimental to the Mexican tourism industry. However, no econometric study so far challenges this claim with data. This paper therefore empirically analyzes the impact of crime on the arrivals of tourists in México for the period 1990 to 2010. Using a panel data set for the 31 Mexican federal states and México City, I find a negative and significant effect of homicides on the number of tourists arriving. This finding is robust to alternative estimation techniques and samples. Furthermore, when disaggregating the tourist arrival data into local and international, I find that international tourists seem to be more intimidated from homicides than locals. 2018 artículo científico 1870-6622 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=125058197002 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/1250/125058197002/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/1250/125058197002/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/1250/125058197002/125058197002.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/1250/125058197002/movil 10.18381/eq.v15i2.7127 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=1250 EconoQuantum application/pdf Universidad de Guadalajara EconoQuantum (México) Num.2 Vol.15
