Deliberation and Conflict in the Times of Peace Building: An Analysis of Popular Protests (2012-2015) in Colombia from a Democratic-Popular Constitutionalism Approach
Main Article Content
Abstract
The present paper proposes that, taking in account the popular protests that took place between 2012 and 2015 in Colombia, it is possible to make a reading about what citizens expect from the Peace Agreement implementation when studying the demands generated due to general dissatisfaction with the role of the State and its failure to comply with what is found positive in the constitution. A revision of the conception of citizenship is proposed, also about how it expects answers that may even go beyond the institutionalized conditions of justiciability. The latter drives to the creation of new deliberation scenarios theoretically based in a reading of the Political Constitution, which aims to return the constitution to the people. The analysis of these demands and / or needs makes it possible to evidence the relevance of the peace agreement and of the government’s agenda commitment with the identification of the protests and their relationship with social, economic, cultural and environmental rights −which must estimate how must the government intervene and how determine how to fulfill its social policy.
