    La Paz en Colombia: entre el acuerdo, el desacuerdo y el desespero
    in Cuadernos Manuel Giménez Abad , n. 12, diciembre ,  2016 ,  150-158
    After 52 years of armed conflict, the Colombian Government and the FARC sat down for four years – with two explorations – in order to negotiate a political solution, in a confrontation that resulted in a negative military tie, where the guerrilla was not liquidated, but did not take power either. With the support of the International Community, one of the relicts of the Cold War seemed to be coming to an end. The agreement, subject of a plebiscite on Oct. 2, was defeated first by a 63% abstention and second by the opponents of the right and the churches. After the referendum the agreement was re-negotiated and most opponents’ requests included, with exception of the political eligibility, to which the opponents of the agreement were opposed. With a Nobel Peace Prize that weighed in favor of President Santos, and a right that plays to win the next elections, the peace agreement is most likely to be endorsed through Congress, where Santos has majorities. The other guerrilla, the ELN, seems to follow the paths of the FARC may start also a dialogue with the government.
