Abstract

Rad se bavi građanskim ratom koji se odvijao u Kolumbiji od 1964. pa sve do 2016. godine. Kao
teorijski okvir definiran je pojam građanskog rata i njegove karakteristike te pojam Nobelove
nagrade za mir koja je dodijeljena predsjedniku Santosu kao rezultat okončanja rata. Ukratko je
predstavljena povijest Kolumbije te politička situacija u državi prije početka sukoba kako bi se
bolje shvatili uzroci koji su doveli do eskalacije sukoba na razinu građanskog rata. Rad analizira
glavne aktere ovog sukoba, FARC i ELN kao najveće gerilske skupine u Kolumbiji, njihovu
ideologiju, taktiku te prethodne pokušaje pregovora s vladom, kao i paravojne skupine koje su
predstavljale otežavajući faktor u okončanju rata. Kao vanjski utjecaj u sukobu spomenut je
SAD-ov „plan Kolumbija“ koji je utjecao na stav koji je vlada zauzela prema gerilama i načinu
okončanja sukoba. Naposljetku su pojašnjeni pregovori u Havani kojima je okončan sukob i
napravljen prvi korak prema miru.

Abstract (english)

This paper deals with the subject of the civil war in Colombia that took place from 1964 until
2016. As a theoretical framework for this work, the concept of the civil war and its
characteristics, as well as the concept of the Nobel Peace Prize, which was awarded to President
Santos as a result of his efforts to end the war, were defined. The history of Colombia and the
political situation in the country before the conflict are briefly presented to better understand the
causes that led to the escalation of the conflict to the level of a civil war. The paper analyzes the
main actors of this conflict, FARC and ELN as the largest guerrilla groups in Colombia, their
ideology, tactics, and previous attempts to negotiate with the government, along with
paramilitary groups that served as an aggravating factor in ending the war. The US Plan
Colombia was mentioned as an external influence in the conflict, which affected the
government's position on guerrillas and their efforts to end the conflict. In the end the Havana
negotiations, which terminated the conflict and represent the first step towards peace, are
mentioned.
