Letter from the director

Abstract

How do Democracies End?

I do not refer explicitly to Revel’s classic book, although obviously the concern is the same. In September of last year, signed the pacts of Havana, the “Tenth Conference of the Farc-Ep” was held in the plains of Yarí. As a result of that conference, a long manifesto entitled “The political solution as part of our history” was written. It is not possible, in this brief writing, to refer to all the content of the manifesto, but to two or three paragraphs that, in my opinion, synthesize the thought of the leadership of that guerrilla that devastated the country for more than 50 years and that apparently, intends to continue ravaging it.
