Crime in Colombia
Colombia, in common with many Latin American nations, evolved as a highly segregated society, split between the traditionally rich families of Spanish descent and the vast majority of poor Colombians, many of whom are of mixed race. This second group provided a natural constituency for left-wing insurgents – who nowadays fall into two groups, the larger FARC (Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia), and the ELN (National Liberation Army).
At the other end of the political spectrum are right-wing paramilitaries, with roots in vigilante groups set up decades ago by landowners for protection against rebels. The main group was the AUC - the United Self-Defence Forces of Colombia.
Elements of all the armed groups have been involved in drug-trafficking. In a country where the presence of the state has always been weak, the result has been a grinding war on multiple fronts, with the civilian population caught in the crossfire and often deliberately targeted for "collaborating". Human rights advocates blame paramilitaries for massacres, "disappearances", and cases of torture and forced displacement. Rebel groups are behind assassinations, kidnapping a nd extortion.
In 2011, President Juan Manuel Santos launched a "Borders for Prosperity" plan〔Ministerio de Relaciones Exteriores, Colombia. "(Borders for Prosperity Plan )". Retrieved 1 August 2014.〕 to fight poverty and combat violence from illegal armed groups along Colombia's borders through social and economic development,〔International Crisis Group. "(Dismantling Colombia's New Illegal Armed Groups: Lessons from a Surrender )", (CrisisGroup.org ). 8 June 2012. Retrieved 1 August 2014.〕 having spent as much as $32 million on infrastructure, education, agricultural development and governance by 2014.〔International Crisis Group. "(Corridor of Violence: The Guatemala-Honduras Border )". (CrisisGroup.org ). 4 June 2014. Retrieved 1 August 2014.〕 According to the International Crisis Group, the plan "appears to be having a positive impact, especially in marginalized communities with little or no state presence".〔
