CARRILLO GONZALEZ, Lorena. From Clandestine Duels to Searches for the Disappeared. (Experiences of Searching for FARC Combatants in the Scene of the Post-peace Agreement in Colombia). Hist. graf [online]. 2021, n.56, pp.195-237.  Epub 23-Fev-2021. ISSN 1405-0927.  https://doi.org/10.48102/hyg.vi56.356.

This article takes up experiences of the search for missing and disappeared FARC combatants, carried out by relatives and ex-combatants. I aim to explain how the lives of thousands of ‘guerrilleros’ killed during hostilities were never considered as liveable lives by different State entities and the majority of Colombian society. This situation has determined how relatives of fallen combatants have had to carry out searches and duels clandestinely, without bodies or certainties. My purpose is to point out that the impossibility of valuing those lives, by giving them names and recognizing their stories has profound implications for attempts to build community in Colombia. Especially, having in mind the current post-agreement scenario, which is still living the armed conflict.
