| Summary: | -----
This article approaches the early alert system, a valuable instrument for avoiding growing conflicts and their consequences. The authors study the implementation of such a system in Colombia by analyzing the role that the State plays in its application. They point out the complexity of the Colombian situation, insofar as the State plays a double role as judge of and participant in the implementation of this preventive system, since it is involved in the conflict and is also responsible for its implementation. In addition, the authors describe some of the difficulties, often found in an armed-conflict context, that the army and the police must face in order to assist communities on time and effectively when the latter are threatened or attacked by illegal armed groups. |
