This article describes the changes in land tenure and land use in Tibú (Norte de Santander) between 2000 and 2010. It shows that those changes were highly concentrating, massive, and successively developed in two ways: a coercive one, operated by paramilitaries, and another one, operated by entrepreneurs and other land commissioners through an abnormal and unregulated market. I argue that both ways are explicatives of land grab, conduce to accumulation forms via dispossession, and that neither can be understood without accounting for a set of public policies and institutional designs promoted by the state.

Palabras clave : armed conflict; land grab; constraint; unregulated market.
