PALOMEQUE SERNA, Angie Katerine  and  HINESTROZA CUESTA, Lisneider. LEGAL ANALYSIS OF AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THIRD PARTIES AND BLACK COMMUNITIES FOR FORESTRY USE IN THE DEPARTMENT OF CHOCÓ. Prolegómenos [online]. 2016, vol.19, n.38, pp.25-42. ISSN 0121-182X.  https://doi.org/10.18359/prole.1968.

This article aims to analyze agreements with third parties for forestry use in collective territories of black communities. Using documentary research, it was revised the legislation about forestry use issued in Colombia by comparing it with the special legislation of black communities to define the scope of the agreements between the community councils and third parties. It is concluded that agreements with third parties are a lawful activity, covered by the Act 70/1993. However, there are no precise guidelines, except for the persistence of the forest resource, laying down the scope of such agreements and the rules for which these are governed, if they are the ones of commercial law, civil law or own right.

Keywords : Forestry use; black communities; collective territories; agreements with third parties.
