Colombia
Introduction [Top of Page] Background: Colombia was one of the three countries that emerged from the collapse of Gran Colombia in 1830 (the others being Ecuador and Venezuela). A 40-year insurgent campaign to overthrow the Colombian Government escalated during the 1990s, undergirded in part by funds from the drug trade. Although the violence is deadly and large swaths of the countryside are under guerrilla influence, the movement lacks the military strength or popular support necessary to overthrow the government. While Bogota continues to try to negotiate a settlement, neighboring countries worry about the violence spilling over their borders.

Venezuela
Introduction [Top of Page] Background: Venezuela was one of the three countries that emerged from the collapse of Gran Colombia in 1830 (the others being Colombia and Ecuador). For most of the first half of the 20th century, Venezuela was ruled by generally benevolent military strongmen, who promoted the oil industry and allowed for some social reforms. Democratically elected governments have held sway since 1959. Current concerns include: drug-related conflicts along the Colombian border, increasing internal drug consumption, overdependence on the petroleum industry with its price fluctuations, and irresponsible mining operations which are endangering the rain forest and indigenous peoples.

      The Reyes Presidency
      At the end of the civil war, the country needed a leader who was strong enough to rebuild the nation after the loss of Panama and the ravages of civil strife. General Rafael Reyes, elected president in 1904 with the support of moderate Conservatives, showed a determination to unify the republic, renew the nation's economy, and prevent any obstacleconstitutional or otherwise from standing in his way. Reyes's policies were a contradictory combination of political reconciliation and authoritarianism, which forced minority Liberal representation in government on the elected Conservative majority in Congress. His economic programs included a protectionist trade policy, which represented a major intervention of the state into economic activity. This trade policy encouraged domestic industrial growth, which in turn led to the growth of cities and the need to develop an urban infrastructure. Reyes realized that the soundest path to economic development based on trade and foreign investmentrequired normalized relations with the United States, an unpopular idea at that time. In 1909 Reyes unsuccessfully tried to force legislative approval of the Thompson-Urrutia Treaty with the United States, which was to reestablish relations with that country and recognize the independence of Panama. The issue of the treaty's ratification, however, provided a focal point for opposition against Reyes, even though the treaty was ratified under a subsequent administration. In June 1909, the Republican Union, a bipartisan group of Liberals and Historical Conservatives who opposed Reyes, won a majority in the congressional elections held to reestablish the Colombian Cngress. In acknowledgment of the political current against him, Reyes secretly resigned later that month and left the country.

      Economy - overview Colombia's economy suffered from weak domestic demand, austere government budgets, and a difficult security situation. A new president takes office in 2002 and will face economic challenges ranging from pension reform to reduction of unemployment. Two of Colombia's leading exports, oil and coffee, face an uncertain future; new exploration is needed to offset declining oil production, while coffee harvests and prices are depressed. Problems in public security are a concern for Colombian business leaders, who are calling for progress in the government's peace negotiations with insurgent groups. Colombia is looking for continued support from the international community to boost economic and peace prospects. GDP purchasing power parity - $255 billion (2001 est.)

    Current Research Topic
    Borderland Society in a Globalising world. The case of the Venezuelan-Colombian: San Antonio-Cúcuta, crossing point. The traditional nature and functions of borders are changing in their political and ideological significance under the influence of global economic transformations. To understand border issues at the current time implies several considerations, not only from the point of view of the political sciences and political geography, but also in terms of various spatial implications in their social, cultural and environmental dimensions. My research topic consists of a study of the Venezuelan-Colombian borderland society, notably the San Antonio-Ureña (Táchira, Venezuela) and Cúcuta- Villa de Rosario (Norte de Santander, Colombia) crossing point. This study is conducted within the context of global dialectical processes and/or the paradoxes resulting from globalization and regional integration processes. Societies on either side of this borderland share the same historical experiences in terms of the evolution of the state, language, religion and culture, which together have left behind an important legacy of societal relations across the border. The intensive level of interaction, in terms of the flow of goods, people, information and so on, is leading to the construction of complex scenarios of social life at different scales of geographical analysis.
