POSADA PEREZ, Natalia María. Land Restitution in Antioquia, Colombia. Basis for the Consolidation of Women as Subjects of Law and its Repercussions on the Post-Agreement. Estud. Polit. [online]. 2020, n.59, pp.150-175. ISSN 0121-5167.  https://doi.org/10.17533/udea.espo.n59a07.

In the Colombian legal tradition, women have not been recognized and acknowledged as proper land owners, they have been regarded as beings without decision-making or administration abilities The objective of this article is to analyze the construction of Women´s land and property rights, based on the monitoring of the position of women in Colombian rural regulations. For this purpose, the study analyzes the testimony of Antioquia women peasants land claimants, guided by the hypothesis that reparation under Law 1448 of 2011 is a key piece for the recognition of women as subjects of law. Based on feminist theories and the gender perspective, the article presents the history of women peasants around the land. A history marked by legal anonymity, the loss of land in the framework of the armed conflict, the claim of the property under the mentioned Law, and which closes with the recognition of the ownership of rights through the figure of the claim and what this means in a post-agreement context, and promoting the resignification of victimization.

Keywords : Armed Conflict; Post-Conflict; Woman Subject of Law; Gender Perspective; Access to Land; Colombia.
