SERRANO-MORA, Sandra Milena. Processing Social Suffering in Colombia: A Look at Community Experiences from Victims of the Armed Conflict. Ágora U.S.B. [online]. 2021, vol.21, n.2, pp.673-689.  Epub 10-Jun-2022. ISSN 1657-8031.  https://doi.org/10.21500/16578031.5038.

The reflection is based on the ways of processing the social suffering resulting from political violence in Colombia, by gathering local and community experiences. It is derived from the content analysis, which is carried out from three undergraduate theses in the area of Social Psychology. The following categories are proposed: symbolic elaborations, memory, or social leadership, as forms of processing and community resistance. The communities of pain are erected as communities of hope and mutual support. The ethical-political commitment of the Social Sciences is reaffirmed, by facing the construction of knowledge from the voices and suffering communities, by recognizing other areas of knowledge.

Palabras clave : Social Suffering; Victims; Grieving Communities; Other Areas of Knowledge; Memory; and Social Leadership..
