Sumario: |
The transition towards a “post-peace agreements” state of affairs in Colombia creates special scenarios in which a universal model of Transitional Justice policy – in our case that of land restitution –meets with the local. We should understand the “local” not only in a material sense – as land and territory – but also as a perspective that brings into circulation different discourses on peasant society, family, gender, justice and development. The following text analyzes the (dis)encounters between different gender discourses and practices, for the purpose of assessing the transformative capacity of the law for gender justice. In this analysis we use the concept of frictions through which we hope to better understand complex interactions, hidden conflicts, ambiguous outcomes, and also new possibilities for agency. |
