Vida en el Estigma: Construcción de relatos identarios en excombatientes de las FARC desde el discurso del déficit

Abstract

This research aims to understanding the construction of identity stories from deficit discourse in FARC ex-combatants that have been linked to the Reintegration Process in the ZVTN La Cooperativa of Vista Hermosa, Meta. The problem in question arises in the light of the paradigm of complexity, social constructionism as an epistemological perspective and the systemic-narrative approach, considering the identity stories and the deficit discourse as nuclear categories, as well as interdisciplinary contributions of the social sciences and the philosophy regarding knowledge, power and stigmatization. For its development, the problem is approached from a qualitative-relational methodology, through the creation of reflective conversational scenarios interpreted according to the relational and performative narrative analysis, in coherence with the investigative line Psychology, everyday realities and social transformations. The results allow us to make it possible to understand that have been co-constructed saturated identity stories with problems that place ex-combatants as kind enemies alien to the common people of the Colombian population, and that from the framework of the reintegrative practices positioned in the deficit discourse are stigmatized and excluded, legitimizing their submission to the State since the normalization of their lives; however, unsaturated identity stories also emerge that are understood as personal and collective possibilities of self-organization that reflect generative hopes and expectations with respect to the reintegrative process they go through.
