On September 24, 2015 the Colombian government and the Fuerzas Armadas Revolucionarias de Colombia(FARC) gave themselves six months to reach a definitive peace agreement, which would reincorporate the oldest insurgent group in Latin America -founded in 1964- into democratic society. This would mean the direct participation of the guerrilla group in the country's political life. The FARC, inspired by the ideals of Communism and of the peasant movement, espoused the use of violence to achieve agrarian reform that would respond to the demands of the peasantry (at the time of its foundation comprising over half the country's population). Since then, the armed conflict, like any war, has created a legacy of violence and death that affects the parties to the conflict, and has created an indelible mark on the memory of all Colombians. ; El 24 de septiembre de 2015, el Gobierno de Colombia y las Fuerzas Armadas Revolucionarias de Colombia (FARC) se dieron seis meses para alcanzar un acuerdo de paz definitivo y, de esta manera, insertar en el modelo democrático del Estado de derecho al grupo insurgente más antiguo de Latinoamérica, que nació en 1964. Esto implicaría directamente la participación del grupo guerrillero en el escenario político del país. Esta guerrilla, inspirada en ideales comunistas y de movimientos campesinos, en sus orígenes propone la toma de armas como medio para reclamar una reforma agraria que resuelva los reclamos de la población campesina (que para ese entonces comprendía más de la mitad de la población del país). Desde entonces, el conflicto bélico, como cualquier guerra, ha dejado una ola de violencia y muerte para las partes en conflicto, así como una huella imborrable en la memoria de los colombianos. ; Em 24 de setembro de 2015, o governo da Colômbia e as Forças Armadas Revolucionárias da Colômbia (Farc) deram-se seis meses para chegar a um acordo de paz definitivo e, dessa maneira, inserir, no modelo democrático do Estado de direito, o grupo insurgente mais antigo da América Latina, que ...
Violence is the intentional use of physical strength or power, actually or under threat, against oneself, someone else, or against a group or community, which results or has a high probability of resulting in injury, death or psychological damage, bad development or deprivation(1).In Brazil and in the world, a lot is told about violence, which is present in various forms in everyday life, whether in the country or in urban area. Cities have grown without proper planning, people have migrated, generating unsatisfied social demands in the large centers, television has invaded home and modified people's thinking in great extension, families have loosen moral principles, governments do not set good examples.Therefore, violence has spread into all aspects of life, revealing itself in economics (exploitation of man by man, state coercion, material dependence, discrimination against women's work, child labour, unfair impositions etc.), in politics (control by one or various parties, authoritarianism, exclusion of citizens from decision-making, revolution, war and armed conflict etc.), in ideology (implementation of official criteria, prohibition of free thought, censorship, manipulation of public opinion, advertisements and issues of violent nature), in religion (submission to clerical interests, strict control of thought, prohibition of other beliefs and persecution of "heretics", etc.), within the family (exploitation of women and children etc.), in education (teachers and principals authoritarianism etc.), in the army (unquestioning obedience to commanders etc.), in the culture (excluding innovating trends, prohibiting publication of works, bureaucracies, etc.). (2)It is health's responsibility dealing with people affected by physical or psychological violence, in hospitals, ambulatory facilities or clinics. As researches in health are responsible for statistical data consolidation. In 2002, the World Health Organization (WHO) released its first report on violence and health, achieving a comprehensive review on the ...
One of the most vibrant theories that constitute the theoretical framework of Foreign Policy Analysis is the Decision Unit Framework created by Margaret & Charles Hermann. This article aims to present a critical view of this theory, demonstrating its strengths & weaknesses, always with the attempt of demystifying some of its excessive simplifications in relation to actors' characteristics. We exemplify a more sharpened analysis of the coalition decision-making process through the demonstration of the conflict that opposed then Portuguese President Spinola & the Armed Forces Movement (MFA) during the Portuguese democratic transition process between 1974 & 1975.
