Abstract

El propósito del ensayo es analizar los factores que explican la violencia enColombia; para ello, el autor, retoma elementos fundamentalmente en elneoinstitucionalismo, en el narcotráfico y en la desigualdad. González,después de explorara los tres elementos antes enunciados, plantea lahipótesis de que la desigualdad es, a su juicio, el factor que más se aproximapara interpretar la violencia. Si bien es una hipótesis provisional quenecesita más trabajo y elaboración, considera que existen manifestacionessuficientes para pensar que la exclusión y la desigualdad podrían habercreado condiciones propias para la violencia".__________ABSTRACT:The purpose of this essay is to analyze the factors that generate violence inColombia. In this context, the author discusses basic elements of theneoliberalism, drugs dealing, and inequity, and states the hypothesis thatinequity is the main factor which causes violence. In his first attempt toprove his hypothesis, he has found enough reasons to think that exclusionand inequity could have set the conditions for the violence in Colombia."
