Latin America’s Search for Security: Between Repression and Dialogue

Latin America’s Search for Security: Between Repression and Dialogue

In Latin America, most violence is considered “criminal.” But a clear-cut distinction between political and criminal violence does not exist. Policies to reduce violence meander between repression and dialogue but lack comprehensiveness, and a focus on prevention, the rule of law, and human rights.

Mord an Politiker in Ecuador – der Umgang mit Drogenkartellen in Lateinamerika

Mord an Politiker in Ecuador – der Umgang mit Drogenkartellen in Lateinamerika

The asasination of Ecuadorian presidential candidate Fernando Villavicencio becomes part of Latin America's search for security policies to confront organised crime. Two models are pursued: El Salvador's President Nayib Bukele opts for extreme repression while Colombian President Gustavo Petro favours talks for disarmament.

Pandemic, Protest, and Petro Presidente: Rescuing Colombia’s Peace

COVID-19 paved the way for a left-wing government winning in Colombia’s recent elections. The pandemic has deepened structural inequalities, promoting an unprecedented wave of protest against the right-wing incumbent. Answering with high levels of violence only further increased the call for change.

Bringing Afghan Women to the Table: How to Negotiate with the Taliban

Since the Taliban’s takeover of Afghanistan in August 2021 space for women has been constantly shrinking, and the country is facing a humanitarian disaster. European partners may need to engage with the de facto regime, which should not come at the cost of excluding women from the engagement process.
