Ten Years after Havana: Feminist and Decolonial Analyses of the Implementation of Colombia’s Peace Agreement

Anctil Avoine, Priscyll; Weber, Sanne

This book is woven around feminist and decolonial critical approaches to make sense of the implementation of Colombia’s 2016 peace agreement. Colombia offers an intriguing case: the country presented itself as an international example, a trailblazer in implementing a gender approach and a champion in designing innovative mechanisms for transitional justice and the reintegration of ex-combatants

This book, however, shows the breach between thoughtful, comprehensive, and inclusive policies and the actual practice of implementing them. It provides much-needed evidence of the actual implementation of these policies, which serves as a compelling example for other peace processes worldwide. The book combines strong theoretical feminist and decolonial engagement with in-depth empirical data from leading experts in peacebuilding in Colombia. Its chapters provide a thorough analysis of sustainable peace, foregrounding the contributions of ethnic groups, women, and LGBTQI+ communities. By including reflections from both scholars and practitioners, the book appeals to academic, policymaking, and practitioner audiences.
