SARMIENTO HERNANDEZ, Edwar Alexander; ROJAS-GUEVARA, Jorge Ulises  e  ROJAS GUEVARA, Pedro Javier. Impact of the peace process with the FARC on Colombia's anti-drug policy. Rev. Cient. Gen. José María Córdova [online]. 2020, vol.18, n.32, pp.816-837.  Epub 01-Out-2020. ISSN 1900-6586.  https://doi.org/10.21830/19006586.632.

This article examines how the Colombian Government's peace negotiations with the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC) have impacted the country's anti-drug policy. To this end, it reviews the literature on civil war economics and the economics of crime as a profession. It also examines anti-drug policy studies over the past two decades and analyzes the official figures in government and international reports on illicit crops, production, and trafficking. The results show that the State's anti-drug policy during the Santos administration, fundamentally based on voluntary eradication and crop substitution and a decrease in aerial spraying (forced eradication), was a deter- mining factor in the increase of cocaine crops.

Palavras-chave : drug policy; drug trafficking; FARC; illicit crops; organized crime; peace agreement.
