| Résumé: | Since the end of the 1980s, the Colombian region of Urabà and more generally the whole country has been faced with a crisis of violence one could qualify of generalised violence. The author shows that this crisis was firstly not percieved as a group of deviant behaviours but as an carrer opportunity in a new sector of the informal economy. Thus, many strategies of violence are short term strategies in an immediate poximity. The action does not unfurl in a regional context but rather in very small local contexts. The stakes of the action are the control of legal or illegal ressources. But the complexity of the situation and the resulting social disorganisation make it more difficult for people to give a meaning to violence. Violence is therefore experienced as a situation of terror. |
