          Abstract

          Dado su fuerte impacto en las sociedades, los conflictos armados internos han ocupado la atención de los académicos del mundo. Especialmente tras el fin del la guerra fría, ha aumentado el número de explicaciones que los atribuyen no sólo a la confrontación bipolar entre las dos potencias mundiales, sino a otras dinámicas políticas, económicas y sociales internas y externas a los países. En Colombia, especialmente, la existencia de un conflicto armado que ya ha superado medio siglo de duración ha nutrido una prolífica producción académica. Este artículo identifica algunas de las principales líneas de investigación que se han desarrollado en materia de conflicto armado y estudios de paz en las últimas décadas. Sugiere que con el paso de los años, la literatura se ha vuelto cada vez más compleja, diversa y sofisticada y ha mostrado una notable capacidad de adaptación y transformación a los nuevos retos conceptuales y empíricos.

          Translated abstract

          The pervasive effect of armed conflicts on affected societies has kept scholars busy around the world. Since the end of the Cold War in particular, the number of explanatory efforts attributing armed conflict not only to the bipolar confrontation among the world's super powers but to complex internal and external political, economic, and social dynamics of conflict-ridden countries has increased. In Colombia, decades of armed conflict have nurtured a prolific academic production. This article identifies some of the main lines of research on the topic of armed conflicts and peace studies. It suggests that with the passage of time, the literature has gained in complexity, diversity, and sophistication, displaying a notorious capacity to adapt and transform in the face of new conceptual and empirical challenges.

            The Consequences of Negotiated Settlements in Civil Wars, 1945–1993

            We know very little about how civil wars end. Harrison Wagner has argued that negotiated settlements of civil wars are likely to break down because segments of power-sharing governments retain the capacity for resorting to civil war while victory destroys the losers' organization, making it very difficult to resume the war. An analysis of a data set of 91 post-1945 civil wars generally supports this hypothesis but only in wars over identity issues. Moreover, while military victories may be less likely to break down than negotiated settlements of identity civil wars, they are also more likely to be followed by acts of genocide. Outsiders concerned with minimizing violence thus face a dilemma.
