Colombia Calling - Living And Working In Colombia

We are incredibly fortunate to speak to Jenny Pearce, Research Professor, Latin America and Caribbean Centre (LACC) at LSE about her current research which focuses particularly on the role of Elites and Violence in Latin America. She worked with young researchers in Colombia, led by Juan David Velasco (Lecturer, Pontificia Universidad Javeriana), on elites and the Peace Accord. Together they designed a database to better define and differentiate elites in Colombia and the families behind them. Learn about the power wielded by a few families and how their far-reaching influence defines Colombia's wealth and politics. The research is funded by the Instituto Colombo-Alemán para la Paz (CAPAZ).
