Demobilising the paramilitaries in Colombia: an achievable goal? Forced Migration Online (24276783) Migration, asylum and refugee law FORCED MIGRATION ONLINE NEGOTIATION INTERNAL POLITICS GOVERNMENT POLICY INTERNATIONAL ASSISTANCE DEMOBILIZATION CONFLICT PEACE BUILDING This report assesses the target of disbanding the paramilitary United Self-Defence Forces of Colombia (AUC) by the end of 2005, noting that this target remains problematic. It argues that the government will need to get much tougher, including with credible threats to use force, if negotiations that opened in July 2004 are to succeed. The international community should offer more cooperation if the serious questions that remain about the project can be resolved in a way that respects rule of law and promotes the ultimate goal of ending the long conflict. 2026-09-30T11:48:53Z Text Online resource 10.25446/oxford.33354384.v1 https://figshare.com/articles/online_resource/Demobilising_the_paramilitaries_in_Colombia_an_achievable_goal_/33354384 CC BY-NC-ND 4.0
