Retos de la psicología en la construcción de paz en Colombia: ¿fatalismo o ingenuidad?

Abstract

The article aims to analyze the role of psychology in a post agreement scenario resulting from the negotiations
between the guerrillas and the Colombian government. Theoretical conditions stemming from war and
con
fl
ict comprehension have been taken into account, and were analyzed from epistemological, theoretical,
professional and methodological scenarios. The analysis demonstrated that the post agreement situation may
be addressed from six categories of social psychology. The work of psychology in post agreement conditions
can validate the fatalism of the experience of war or propose generative conditions for the consolidation of
peaceful coexistence in Colombia.
