    • Abstract:
      Recognizing the impact of the social, political and armed conflict on the present and future of Colombia, this article analyzes some of the rhetoric which appeared in audiovisual and written media between 2008 and 2015 about the armed forces, insurgent organizations and the women that integrate them. I argue that these rhetorics are related to a war fought on a symbolic level -in which the category “terrorism” has occupied an important place- and that it continues to have profound repercussions on the configuration of Colombian society. The article synthesizes some elements of the investigation “Being a guerrilla is an honor. Mediations in the conversion and permanence of militant women of insurgent organizations in Colombia”, carried out between early 2012 and mid-2016 with guerrilla women being held as political prisoners.
