Este libro busca contribuir a los procesos de análisis y comprensión de los heterogéneos modos de vida y las espacialidades rurales que producen distintos grupos sociales en medio de la persistencia de desigualdades sociales, dinámicas de violencia y conflictos socio-ambientales, pero con la esperanza de construir autonomía y garantías para una vida digna y en paz. Es elaborado a partir de un diálogo de saberes comprometido con la producción de conocimientos situados, con pertinencia social, entre la universidad y diversos sujetos rurales (campesinado, pueblos originarios -indígenas y afrodescendientes-, víctimas del conflicto armado, firmantes de la paz, entre otros); en él parti...
La justicia transicional es una modalidad de la justicia consensual, y por supuesto, su característica más definitoria es el principio dialógico, inquietud hoy de primer orden sobre la cual los estudiantes de la Maestría en Derecho Penal y Criminología de la Universidad Externado de Colombia –promoción 2020-2021– han querido discernir y disertar como aporte a la juridicidad colombiana, muy especialmente al sistema de Justicia Especial para la Paz (jep).

The appearance of Coffee and Conflict in Colombia, 1886-1910, had several important consequences for the entire field of Latin American history, as well as for the study of Colombia. Through Bergquist's analysis of this transitional period in terms of what has been called the dependency theory, he has left his mark on all subsequent studies in Latin American affairs; questions of economic development and political alignment cannot be dealt with without confronting Bergquist's work. he has also provided a major contribution to Colombian history by his examination of the growth of the coffee industry and Thousand Days War.
How can we create a more rigorous and effective epidemiology?

This book presents a theoretical framework to study dissident ethnic movements’ imagination of world politics, with a special focus on the PKK as a case study. Dissident ethnic movements are not only a challenge to the existing hegemonic power, but they also produce an alternative closed society based on different ethnic imagination. Instead of taking the armed PKK movement as a pure resistant, this book approaches contemporary Kurdish nationalism led by the PKK as a counter-hegemonic with a narrative that entails the emergence of a new kind of identity and sense of belonging, through which the PKK has been able to exercise its power. This book is an attempt to go beyond resistance-oriented approach, unveiling the two faces of the PKK’s representation of world politics: its transformative effect on the Kurds, and its exclusionary function towards traditional and alternative Kurdish subjects/institutions.
Garry Leech has written the definitive introduction to the FARC, examining the group's origins, aims, and ideology, and looking at its organizational and operational structures. The book also investigates the FARC's impact on local, regional, and global politics and explores its future direction. 'Rebels' is an exciting and innovative new series looking at contemporary rebel groups and their place in global politics. Written by leading experts, the books serve as definitive introductions to the individual organizations, whilst seeking to place them within a broader geographical and political framework. They examine the origins, ideology and future direction of each group, whilst posting such questions as 'When does a "rebel" political movement become a "terrorist" organization?' and 'What are the social-economic drivers behind political violence?'. Provocative and original, the series is essential reading for anyone interested in how rebel groups operate today.
