The data is analyzed using linear regressions and competing risks survival analysis. I find that ransom amounts had very little effect on the probability of ransom payments, indicating a highly inelastic market for the return of loved ones. Sex had a small impact on the probability of being killed in captivity and of being rescued. Childhood improved a victim's chance of rescue by 21.3%.

Is there any information that political groups or guerrilla groups have kidnapped children because their parents lived overseas for long periods, or because the parents are perceived as having been successful in businesses overseas? Sources, quoted below, report that Colombia has achieved a significant reduction in the number of persons kidnapped annually since the year 2000. Nevertheless, kidnapping remains a significant source of finance in 2009 for armed insurgencies groups such as the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC), the National Liberation Army of Colombia (ELN), as well as criminal organisations.

  • SIPRI Yearbook 2009: Armaments, Disarmament and International
    2. Trends in armed conflicts: one-sided violence against civilians EKATERINA STEPANOVA I. Introduction While past editions of the SIPRI Yearbook have mostly focused on armed conflict according to the traditional definition—armed violence between the military forces of parties contesting an incompatibility—much armed violence does not fit into this category.1 Other forms of violence, such as massacres, arbitrary killings and terrorist attacks, are inflicted directly and intentionally on civilians. Even though these forms of violence often take place in the context of an armed conflict and the incidence of armed con- flict per se has declined since the early 1990s, this ‘one-sided’ violence against civilians has continued largely unabated.2 This chapter explores and tries to explain the persistence of one-sided violence in the context of armed conflict.3 Section II outlines the main pat- terns of one-sided violence in modern armed conflicts. Sections III–VI explore how these patterns manifested themselves in 2008 in Somalia, Sri Lanka, South Ossetia and Colombia. Conclusions are presented in sec- tion VII. Appendix 2A presents data from the Uppsala Conflict Data Pro- gram (UCDP) on major armed conflicts in 1999–2008. It also presents and analyses UCDP data on one-sided violence for the period 1997–2006. Appendix 2B presents the Global Peace Index, which is published in the SIPRI Yearbook for the first time this year, and describes the methodology for this new data set. II. One-sided violence in the context of armed conflicts The UCDP defines one-sided violence as the intentional use of armed force against civilians by a government or formally organized group that results 1 See appendix 2A for the full definition of ‘armed conflict’ used by SIPRI and the Uppsala Con- flict Data Program (UCDP).

  • The Impact of Kidnappings on Corporate Investment in Colombia Cede

SUAREZ Abstract This paper measures the impact of crime on firm investment by exploiting variation in kidnappings in Colombia from 1996 to 2002. Our central result is that firms invest less when kidnappings target firms. We also find that aggregate crime rates—homicides, guerrilla attacks, and general kidnappings—have no significant effect on investment. This finding alleviates concerns that our main result may be driven by unobserved variables that explain both overall criminal activity and investment. Furthermore, kidnappings that target firms reduce not only the investment of firms that sell in local markets, but also the investment of firms that sell in foreign markets. Thus, an unobservable correlation between poor demand conditions and criminal activity is unlikely to explain the negative impact of firm-related kidnappings on investment. Our results are consistent with the hypothesis that managers are reluctant to invest when their freedom and life are at risk; however, we cannot completely discard alternative explanations.

  • Chapter VIII. CONCLUSION: DEMOCRACY and VIOLENCE
    Chapter VIII. CONCLUSION: DEMOCRACY AND VIOLENCE, EARLY WARNING AND CONFLICT PREVENTION – IMPLICATIONS FOR INTERNATIONAL ASSISTANCE Marc Chernick The six chapters presented here each provide a different optic from which to view the functioning of democratic governance, violent conflict, and the relationships among the various components of each. Four of the chapters address political processes (García Villegas and Uprimny on the legal state, Martínez on state capacity, García and Hoskin on democracy and Chernick on social protest) while the two other chapters directly examine the multi-dimensional phenomena of violent conflict (Segura and Camacho on social violence and Reyes on political violence). Each chapter focuses on one or more of the eight quadrants of polyarchy and conflict outlined in the Georgetown-United Nations methodology. Individually, they probe and examine the core issues of how Colombia’s democratic regime functions, how the capacity and territorial presence of the Colombian state can be measured, how social/criminal violence has interacted with other forms of violence as well as impacted on democracy and the rule of law, and how political violence has affected democratic governance and legitimate state authority. In Chapter I, we outlined five phases of escalating conflict delineated by the International Peace Academy (IPA): • Potential Conflict • Gestation of Conflict • Trigger/Mobilization of Conflict • Conflict Escalation • Post-Conflict 406 The multi-dimensional nature of the Colombian violence does not fit neatly into this typology. Yet if we focus exclusively on the armed conflict, it is evident that Colombia –alone in Latin America -- is somewhere beyond the Trigger/Mobilization and well into the Conflict Escalation phase.

    COVER PAGE Title: Colombia and the FARC: Digging in for Peace Subtitle: Colombia's Peace Process: End of The Road? Track: Management Education and Teaching Cases Key words: Terrorist groups; Government action; Peace negotiation process ESE Business School-Universidad de Navarra COLOMBIA AND THE FARC: DIGGING IN FOR PEACE COLOMBIA'S PEACE PROCESS: END OF THE ROAD? The Colombian government and the FARC guerrillas publicly announced in Oslo, Norway, that they would begin a new round of negotiations for peace in Colombia. However, none of the parties have ceased the armed fighting. The FARC made the first sign of commitment to the peace dialogue by announcing a unilateral ceasefire between November 20 and January 20, 2013. Although the guerrillas provoked several incidents during the truce and security forces continued their offensive against the FARC, the overall level of violence has decreased. While the beginning of negotiations with the terrorist group has rekindled a sense of hope in society at large, well-founded polemics have given rise to opposing positions. Political analysts, public opinion, and President Santos’ predecessor, former President Alvaro Uribe (who launched a strong opposition to the guerrilla), have all claimed emphatically that the FARC will be the main beneficiaries of the initiation of a peace process. Certainly, the FARC could obtain political legitimacy under the shelter of an agreement, just when their military power is at its weakest. Moreover, FARC leaders could receive unfair pardons or amnesties as a result. In addition, analysts fear that the peace negotiations may eat away at the morale of the armed forces, who risk their lives in the fight against terrorism in Colombia.
