RODRIGUEZ PICO, Clara Rocío. POLITICAL PARTICIPATION IN THE HAVANA PEACE AGREEMENTS: THE PRE-REQUISITE OF POPULAR ENDORSEMENT OF THE AGREEMENTS. anal.polit. [online]. 2015, vol.28, n.85, pp.57-75. ISSN 0121-4705.  https://doi.org/10.15446/anpol.v28n85.56247.

This paper analyzes the issue of popular endorsement as a part of the arrangements regarding citizen participation that have been adopted at the negotiating table in Havana. Despite the agreement between the parties regarding its necessity and wide support among public opinion, the media, and academia, this paper examines practical difficulties for its implementation which, if not considered, may even hinder the outcome of the peace agreements. These difficulties are: a) the distance between the existing positions of the national government and the FARC regarding the conception and mechanism for citizen validation to be used, b) the technical and procedural complexity and the few successful precedents in this regard, c) the low level of civic support.

Palavras-chave : peace process; endorsement; ratification; negotiation; Havana agreements.
