Post-conflict Colombia and the Global Circulation of Military Expertise

Viac o knihe

The book challenges prevailing narratives of Colombia's post-conflict situation, arguing for a redefinition that emphasizes the evolution of violence usage rather than a simple presence or absence of conflict. It is divided into two parts: the first examines the dynamics legitimizing the so-called "success story" of Colombia and its international implications, while the second analyzes the historical shifts in military training, highlighting the transition from "citizen-soldier" to "expert-soldier." This unique perspective offers a critical lens on the complexities of peace and violence in Colombia.
