GOMEZ-QUINTERO, Juan David; MALDONADO, Lina; AGUERRI, Jesús C.  y  PASACHOVA, Nataly. Colombian public opinion on the 2016-2020 peace agreement: punitivism, distrust and ostracism. Rev. Crim. [online]. 2022, vol.64, n.3, pp.39-60.  Epub 17-Mar-2023. ISSN 1794-3108.  https://doi.org/10.47741/17943108.365.

After several decades of armed conflict in Colombia, the Colombian Government and the Farc-EP signed, in 2016, the Final Agreement for the termination of the conflict and the construction of a stable and lasting peace. However, this agreement was not endorsed by the citizenry, in a plebiscite held that same year. In 2018, the presidential elections were won by a candidate who promised to change the conditions of the Final Agreement and to modify one of its main instruments: the Special Jurisdiction for Peace (JEP). In this context, this research asks: what is the opinion of Colombians on the Final Agreement and the SJP? The research inquiries into the opinions of Colombians through a comparative statistical analysis of three opinion polls from 2016, 2018 and 2020. The results detail the attitudinal changes that occurred in those years, such as the decrease in the frontal rejection of the Peace Accords and the slight increase in the possibilities of reintegration of excombatants to civilian life. It also exposes some reluctance to change, such as persistent distrust, the reaffirmation of the rejection of pardoning ex-combatants (punitivism) and their political participation (ostracism).

Palabras clave : Public opinion; crimes against peace; public attitudes towards crime; peacekeeping; Opinion poll; special justice for peace.
