Abstract

The phenomenon of forced displacement alters, interrupts and manages in a forced way the life of the indigenous communities, configuring a violation of the whole and of the origin, affecting the spirit and the ancestral order (Centro Nacional de Memoria Histórica, 2020); the Nukak Bakak indigenous community is one of the oldest in Colombia; therefore, it has a relevant meaning for the ancestral history of the country, and has been strongly affected by the armed conflicto in the modality of forced displacement. The life experiences linked to the phenomenon of forced displacement to which the members of the Nukak Bakak indigenous community were subjected, promotes the construction of meanings or social representations; Moscovici (1979), affirms that man creates meanings from the experiences lived in diverse social contexts; that is why the present research proposes the objective of understanding the social representations regarding forced displacement by armed conflicto, in the adult population of the Nukak Bakak indigenous community of the Aguabonita reservation, department of Guaviare, Colombia; through the implementation of a qualitative methodology, focused on the interpretative paradigm, from a phenomenological posture; evidencing that the social representations regarding forced displacement by armed conflicto are created from the experience of territorial uprooting of the Nukak Bakak indigenous community; who relate the concept of forced displacement with the loss of territory due to the armed conflict, generating social problems such as the breakdown of cultural identity, death of members, extreme poverty and immersion in the process of extinction.
