TORREZ PEREZ, Natalia  e  DIAZ-FACIO-LINCE, Victoria Eugenia. Popular Theater and Collective Mourning in Bojayá, Chocó, Colombia. Ágora U.S.B. [online]. 2023, vol.23, n.1, pp.101-123.  Epub 08-Out-2023. ISSN 1657-8031.  https://doi.org/10.21500/16578031.6219.

The value of popular art, particularly theater, is relevant in the processes of elaboration of collective mourning of communities affected by the Colombian armed conflict, especially those derived from the 2002 massacre in Bojayá. The first idea to understand is that the various manifestations of violence experienced in the territory, especially the massacre and displacement, had a disruptive impact that profoundly deconstructed the daily life, identity, and the world of assumptions of the inhabitants. Specifically, it caused multiple losses of material and symbolic order, whose mourning has been very complex due to the dynamics of the Colombian war that prevented the traditional funeral rituals to say goodbye to the more than eighty dead and fragmented the community, by dispersing it in other municipalities.
