O habitus guerrilheiro e as forças armadas revolucionárias da Colômbia (FARC-EP)

Abstract

This article is an attempt to grasp the meaning of a warlike habitus buildup found within the ranks of the Colombian guerilla movement called FARC-EP. The author approaches the dynamics of the lives of men and women following an emotional framework that shape up that organization. The goal is to determine the incidence of a coercive drive found not only between individuals but also rival groups, with its system of rules and ideological principles of a revolutionary nature, in order to determine distinctive forms that the guerillas have developed to deal with their feelings.
