Description
Summary:Forced displacement is a worldwide phenomenon related not only to political and social crisis in different countries, but also to the control of rural areas by armed groups involved in a conflict. Recently, in Colombia, this social phenomenon has dramatically increased together with agrarian, social, and productive problems. The aim of this paper is to analyze the relationship between forced displacement and land tenure in Antioquia in 1996-2004. It finds a positive and strong relationship between land tenure and forced displacement in Antioquia, especially in two of its most important agricultural regions: Urabá and Oriente.
