CANAL LINDARTE, Alejandro; MOSQUERA TELLEZ, Jemay  e  FLOREZ PENA, Carmen Graciela. MITIGATION STRATEGIES FOR HOMICIDAL VIOLENCE IN THE BORDER CITYOF CÚCUTA. Luna Azul [online]. 2014, n.38, pp.297-317. ISSN 1909-2474.

The work structure starts with the introduction, in which the previous processes that frame the study and the attempt to make a contribution to the theoretical and practical bases for the management of extreme social conflicts is evidenced. The focus is on the definition of homicidal violence in the border city of Cúcuta and the formulation of strategies to help on its mitigation. The methodological approach starts from a transdisciplinary, a phenomenological, an epistemological, a dialogue and a reconciliation approach on the urban violence in Cúcuta. It addresses the conceptualization of social conflicts and their manifestation in urban settings, and then contextualizes and interprets the multidimensional relations human beings establish in the territory of the city under study. Subsequently, the results are presented, represented in an interpretive, quantitative and qualitative approach of the social conflicts that occur in border areas, in the identification of the elements that make up the dynamics of homicidal violence in Cúcuta and from these, a set of guidelines and strategies to mitigate violence in that city is formulated, as a contribution to strengthening the defense and social participation scenarios of the victims, to build citizenship and the search for human dignity.
