Colombia: ¿Otros cien anos de Soledad?

Abstract

Resumen: La mayoría de los reportes de los problemas de Colombia, que hacen hincapié en las drogas, mafias, grupos guerrilleros de izquierda y grupos paramilitares “de derecha” son enganosos ya que se centran en los síntomas, no las causas. Sostengo que estas son el resultado de la forma en que Colombia es gobernada. Es decir, con una forma de gobierno indirecto, donde las partes funcionales y disfuncionales del país entran en una relación simbiótica. Proporciono ejemplos de esta relación en el trabajo y discuto varios mecanismos que le ayudan a persistir aunque sea terriblemente costoso para los colombianos colectivamente.
