Is There a Culture of Violence in Colombia?

Peter Waldmann

Terrorism and Political Violence, 2007, vol. 19, issue 4, 593-609

Abstract: This study identifies evidence of a “culture of violence” in Colombia and discusses the structural conditions that allow or cause such a culture to arise. The thesis is that economic factors alone cannot explain violence; rather, cultural factors must be taken into account.
