AGUIRRE, Katherine e RESTREPO, Jorge A. Arms control as a strategy for violence-reduction in Colombia: Pertinence, status and challenges. Rev. Crim. [online]. 2010, vol.52, n.1, pp.265-284. ISSN 1794-3108.
The objective of this document is carrying out an exploration of data form different sources about violence relating to firearms, in order to visualize their impact on the Colombian population during the past three decades. Next, a review of the most recent dynamics is offered as well as the normative framework within which arm control is performed in the country, and a brief recount of strategies already implemented. In the last section, both challenges and debates raising in this respect are exposed, including how the current normative frame imposes obstacles to the implementation of disarmament plans about which positive impacts have been proved being effective in actually reducing violence.
