Focusing on two cases of resettlement in rural Cundinamarca,
Colombia, this book examines how displaced campesinos make sense of
their displacement and how displacement shapes their everyday
lives. It is based on a ten-month fieldwork employing ethnographic
methods working, living and sharing with the displaced and their
host. The book calls for a longer time-frame analysis of the
phenomenon of displacement, which considers people's lives both
pre- and post- physical relocation. It examines how violence and
terror altered people's sense of place and set off displacement
process before they actually moved. It analyses the challenges the
displaced are facing in their subsequent place-making endeavours,
including the negotiation of social relations, consequences of
categorization, engagement with the physical land, and memories of
violence to challenge the notion that displacement starts with
uprooting and terminates with resettlement or return. -- .
