The second part is devoted to Law and social struggles: private security policies and the monopoly of legitimate violence in the areas affected by the armed conflict; agrarian reform from a historical and economic perspective; the rights of nature; the role of ethnoeducation in the dynamics of empowerment of the indigenous and Afro-Colombian population; and the importance of sustainable development in the promotion and use of non-conventional renewable energy.
