“…Moreover, the ongoing violence and killings of ex-combatants, along with the creation of new armed groups and the closing of spaces for reintegration and reconciliation have undermined the trust and confidence in the peace processes. Authors like Arjona et al (2020), Jaramillo et al (2020), andTrejos et al (2020) claim that excombatants perceive serious difficulties in building their future in a society that closes doors to them.…”

Polarization, delegitimization, and fatalism act as psychosocial barriers to peace in Colombia and are part of the ethos of conflict. This qualitative study aimed to understand the social beliefs of citizens of nine urban centers in Colombia regarding the Peace Process between the Colombian State and the Fuerzas Armadas Revolucionarias de Colombia-Ejército del Pueblo (FARC-EP). There were 256 subjects, 127 women and 129 men, who participated in a semistructured and in-depth interview during the second half of 2018 and the first half of 2020. The results were organized according to four categories that emerged in the analysis: (a) An idealized conception of peace that opposes a concrete and real political negotiation of the armed conflict; (b) delegitimization of the adversary, which turns them into an absolute enemy to be eliminated; (c) polarization, which was exacerbated by politics; and (d) fatalism that expresses impotence in the face of a naturalized violence. All this results in a conflict ethos that becomes a psychosocial barrier to peace.

“…1For instance, Arjona et al (2020) find that vast majority of former FARC combatants avoid telling that they belonged to this organization. Drawing on evidence from public opinion surveys, the authors suggest that this finding may be driven by the stigma ex-combatants perceive among civilians, presumably also hindering their reincorporation process (see also García-Sánchez et al, 2021).…”

Do Citizens’ Preferences Matter? Shaping Legislator Attitudes Towards Peace Agreements

To what extent are legislators, responsible for the implementation of many peace agreements, responsive to citizens’ preferences? Examining the 2016 Colombian peace agreement, we embed an experiment in the 2019 wave of a survey of all the members of Congress. We inform legislators about the attitudes of the general population and residents of conflict-affected regions on a provision included in the peace agreement: the creation of 16 special seats in the House of Representatives reserved for conflict areas. We find that legislators underestimate citizen support for this policy, and the magnitude of their misconception is correlated with the positions of their parties on the issue. Moreover, we find that providing information about citizens’ support for the policy does not affect legislator support for the provision.
