Sa conférence passera en revue les quatre phases de déploiement de la stratégie paramilitaire pour mieux comprendre le contexte colombien actuel et les intérêts économiques qui se cachent derrière la répression. Il mettra aussi en lumière comment la politique de "sécurité démocratique" du Président Uribe a débouché sur la persécution politique et judiciaire des membres des mouvements sociaux par l’État colombien, qui les accuse de rébellion ou même de terrorisme, pour avoir simplement osé défendre leurs droits. Cette conférence est organisée en collaboration avec l’Observatoire des Amériques (ODA). Elle se déroulera en espagnol avec traduction chuchoté vers le français. Les questions pourront êtes posées en français ou en anglais.
