Beyond Victimizing Children in Contexts of Armed Conflict: Peace-Building Potencials. Univ. Psychol. [online]. 2018, vol.17, n.1, pp.90-103.

The article presents the review of studies corresponding to one of the phases of the research project in which it is framed, which sought to approximate the state of the art of knowledge produced in Colombia between 2002 and 2012 on the identity and subjectivity of children around to peace and democracy in contexts of armed conflict. Children and youth rights are affected in these contexts from the areas of existence, development, protection andparticipation. The study provides a critical reading of the traditional view focused on the violation of rights and the positioning of children as victims, inviting to identify the individual and collective potentials with which they and their families are provided.

Keywords : childhood; armed conflict; human rights; peace-building.
