Histories of Perplexity
By combining chronological coverage, analytical breadth, and interdisciplinary approaches, these two volumes—Histories of Solitude and Histories of Perplexity—study the histories of Colombia over the past two centuries as illustrations of the histories of democracy across the Americas. The volumes bring together over 40 scholars based in Colombia, the United States, England, and Canada working in various disciplines to discuss how a country that has been consistently presented as a rarity in Latin America provides critical examples to re-examine major historical problems: republicanism and liberalism; export economies and agrarian modernization; populism and cultural politics of state fo...
Selective Security in the War on Drugs
Paramilitaries, crime, and tens of thousands of disappeared persons—the so-called war on drugs has perpetuated violence in Latin America, at times precisely in regions of economic growth. Legal and illegal economy are difficult to distinguish. A failure of state institutions to provide security for its citizens does not sufficiently explain this. Selective Security in the War on Drugs analyzes authoritarian neoliberalism in the war on drugs in Colombia and Mexico. It interprets the “security projects” of the 2000s—when the security provided by the state became ever more selective—as embedded in processes of land appropriation, transformed property relations, and global capital accu...

Managing Testimony and Administrating Victims
This book analyzes the implementation of Law 975 in Colombia, known as the Justice and Peace Law, and proposes a critical view of the transitional scenario in Colombia from 2005 onwards. The author analyzes three aspects of the law: 1) The process of negotiation with paramilitary groups; 2) The constitution of the Group Memoria Histórica (Historic Memory) in Colombia and 3) The process of a 2007 law that was finally not passed. The book contains interviews with key actors in the justice and peace process in Colombia. The author analyses the contradictions, tensions, ambiguities and paradoxes that define the practices of such actors. This book highlights that a critical view of this kind of transitional scenario is indispensable to determine steps towards a just and peaceful society.

Violencias, conflictos urbanos y guerra civil : el caso de la ciudad de Medellín en la decada del noventa
Para analizar las relaciones y diferencias entre violencias, conflictos urbanos y guerra civil en la ciudad de Medellín y cómo su desenvolvimiento conduce al afianzamiento de la opresión y dominación social, se inicia en este ensayo con la identificación de las principales hipótesis interpretativas sobre la violencia en la ciudad. En segunda instancia, se identifican y caracterizan algunos de los principales conflictos urbanos en torno a los cuales se ha configurado la ciudad en la década de los noventa y se analiza en qué grado tiene manifestación la violencia física directa y cuál es su connotación para cada uno de ellos. En tercer lugar, se examina brevemente la evolución de la incidencia de la guerra civil y la forma como se relaciona con los conflictos urbanos violentos y no violentos.
Urbicide
This book uses the reflection of academics specialized in the urban area of Latin America, Europe and the United States, to initiate a comparative debate of the different dynamics in which Urbicidio expresses itself. The field or focal point of analysis that this publication approaches is the city, but under a new critical perspective of inverse methodology to that has been traditional used. It is about understanding the structural causes of self-destruction to finally thinking better and then going from pessimism to optimism. It is a deep look at the city from an unconventional entrance, because it is about knowing and analyzing what the city loses by the action deployed by own urbani...
Derecho internacional y crímenes de guerra en Colombia
Esta obra está llamada a ser pionera en el análisis de los crí- menes de guerra en Colombia. En efecto, el análisis se basa en los elementos de los delitos en la perspectiva del derecho internacional penal, en particular del derecho aplicable a la Corte Penal Internacional, pues como señala la autora acertadamente, hay muy pocos trabajos en la doctrina colombiana acerca de este tema y los trabajos existentes están esencialmente enmarcados en la doctrina de los derechos humanos y el derecho internacional humanitario
