In 2011, as part of a larger transitional justice process, the Colombian government approved a law that would restore land rights for those who lost their homes during the conflicts. However, this restitution process lacked appropriate provisions for rural women beyond granting them a formal property title. Drawing on decades of research, Elusive Justice demonstrates how these women continue to face numerous adverse circumstances, including geographical isolation, encroaching capitalist enterprises, and a dearth of social and institutional support. Donny Meertens contends that women's advocacy organizations must have a prominent role in overseeing these transitional policies in order to create a more just society. By bringing together the underresearched topic of property repayment and the pursuit of gender justice in peacebuilding, these findings have broad significance elsewhere in the world. -- $c back cover. 505 0 $a Introduction: Land, Gender, and Justice on the Eve of Peace -- Transition: Back to normal life? -- Dispossession: A twofold gendered history -- Friction: Land restitution at work -- Transformation: The elusive future -- Conclusion: Linking land, justice and gender to the peace accord -- Epilogue: Women protagonists of the peace accord on gender and land. 650 0 $a Land reform $z Colombia. 650 0 $a Land reform $x Law and legislation $z Colombia. 650 0 $a Land reform beneficiaries $z Colombia. 650 0 $a Women landowners $z Colombia. 650 0 $a Women peasants $z Colombia $x Social conditions. 650 0 $a Land tenure $z Colombia. 650 7 $a Land reform. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00991280 650 7 $a Land reform beneficiaries. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00991301 650 7 $a Land reform $x Law and legislation. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00991288 650 7 $a Land tenure. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00991362 650 7 $a Women landowners. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01178091 650 7 $a Women peasants $x Social conditions. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01178278 651 7 $a Colombia. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01205916 650 7 $a Agrarpolitik $2 gnd 650 7 $a Agrarreform $2 gnd 650 7 $a FriedensbemuÂhung $2 gnd 650 7 $a Gleichberechtigung $2 gnd 651 7 $a Kolumbien $2 gnd 830 0 $a Critical human rights. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231020015853.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=EDF2B86AB05F11EA86A2D96D97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
