PLATA QUEZADA, William Elvis  y  VEGA RINCON, Jhon Janer. Religion, colombian armed struggle and resistance: a bibliography analysis. Anu.hist.reg.front. [online]. 2015, vol.20, n.2, pp.125-155. ISSN 0122-2066.

This bibliography balance shows how the research of religiousness in Colombia has been guided by two epistemological views, derived in turn from the contextual dynamics itself of religious systems. One of them, especially approached by the historical discipline, focuses on Catholicism -the mainly studied religion- rather as an element preserving the status quo, promoting intransigence and encouraging intolerance, violence and war. The other one, a more recent and cross-discipline approach, gives an insight about the relation of religion with social change, the pursuit of peace and resistance to the armed struggle, which, in turn, respond to changes in the attitude of Christian churches towards said phenomenon. On the other hand, the cross-discipline study of religiousness is encouraged, promoting a dialogue between social sciences and theology, and considering religious systems within their contexts.

Palabras clave : Bibliography balance; social sciences; religion; armed struggle; social change; peace; Colombia.
