Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Review Method: Peer Reviewed Abstract: The collapse of the former peace process between the former government of Andrés Pastrana and the FARC (Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia) in February of 2002 has contributed to the overall escalation of the Colombian conflict in both the countryside and urban settings. However, throughout the territory, communities have organized themselves to resist violence in a non-violent fashion. As a result, Colombia host a wide range of zones and experiences of peace attempting to build and articulate civilians demands to the peaceful resolution of the conflict. This paper explores the development of two Zones of Peace in Colombia, Mogotes and Samaniego, which is part of a larger research project including many other Zones of Peace in Colombia and other conflict-ridden societies. This article aims at delineating a deeper understanding of what makes a Zone of Peace more durable and successful in conditions of extreme violence. In addition, the paper will discuss to what extent Zones of Peace in Colombia contribute to democratize and revitalize formal negotiation process between the elites of the parties.
