MESA, JUAN DAVID. Towards a new look at the reintegration of demobilized persons in Colombia: concepts, approaches and possibilities. CS [online]. 2017, n.23, pp.105-133. ISSN 2011-0324.  https://doi.org/10.18046/recs.i23.2437.

This article shows that the public policy agenda of reintegration in Colombia has been closely linked to the international mandate of the Disarmament, Demobilization and Reintegration program, which takes the process in a homogeneous way without considering the unique aspects of demobilized persons (their group of origin, gender, race, among oth ers). It is also pointed out that the academic agenda of reintegration in Colombia, which has been in charge of diagnosing the above, is still in a phase of legal-political discussion because it has concentrated on the legal frameworks, institutionalist and comparative studies of the Process, from a fundamentally structural-functionalist theoretical bet. To that extent, an alternative theoretical-methodological approach is proposed, from the pragmatism of Hans Joas’s theory of creative action, starting from the positive aspects and the reformulation of the most problematic of the state of the matter.

Palabras clave : DDR; Colombia; Reintegration; Theory of creative action.
