The Colombia peace accord: ‘The only possible way forward’

The Globe and Mail published an op-ed by UBC anthropology professor Wade Davis about the value of the Colombia government’s peace accord with Marxist guerillas after it was narrowly rejected by voters.

“It is to the immense credit of Colombia that the result did not doom the process; it simply fired the hearts and minds of all Colombians to re-engage with even greater passion the ongoing struggle for peace,” he wrote.
