It has been traditionally established that the relationship between armed conflicts and development is inversely proportional; the greater the conflicts intensity, the lower the country’s development. However, the Colombian case shows that this is not necessarily true. This article examines the National Rehabilitation Plans precedent to understand how public policies developed in the context of the conflict have helped identify territorial characteristics that show a nexus between development and conflict in the areas most affected by violence. Thus, this precedent of differential development policies in Colombia is analyzed to understand their scope, territorial approach, and limitations, given the territory’s specific economic, social, and geographic dynamics.

Keywords : armed conflict; Colombia; economic development; National Rehabilitation Plan; public policy; social development.
