- Synopsis
- This book, rooted in the disciplines of political theology and peace studies, reflects with and on war-affected communities in Colombia in order to offer crucial lessons about transitioning from violence to peace. It argues that much that is significant for peacebuilding in situations of war escapes the notice of governments, human rights organizations, and academics because it is accomplished through a kind of agency they do not recognize. The book names that agency as constructive agency under duress and demonstrates its significance for peacebuilding by reflecting on a form that the author has seen operating in Colombia over nearly two decades.
