Repensando Palestina: Una crítica a la paz liberal de Oslo desde un marco analítico del colonialismo

Abstract

ResumenEn este estudio hacemos un analisis critico del proceso de paz de Oslo iniciado entre palestinos e israelies en 1993, poniendo de manifiesto como estos acuerdos son elementos constitutivos a traves de los cuales se manifiestan dos formas de colonialismo que operan y se configuran sobre la tierra de Palestina. Una basada en la logica de apropiacion/violencia, ejercida por Israel; y otra de modernizacion/desarrollo, ejercida por los donantes internacionales a traves de su definicion del proceso de paz desde el paradigma de la paz liberal. Se hablara de la narrativa de paz de Oslo, entendido como un marco estructural e ideologico que actua como una matriz de control que se complementa con estas dos formas de colonialismo llegando a legitimarlas.Palabras clave: Palestina, paz liberal, colonialismo, Acuerdos de Oslo AbstractIn this paper, we conduct a critical analysis of the Oslo peace process which was launched in 1993 by Palestinians and Israelis. Through this analysis, we show that the Oslo Accords are constituent elements that reflect the two forms of colonialism that take form and operate on the land of Palestine. One is based on the logic of appropriation/violence and is exerted by Israel, whereas the other is based on the logic of modernisation/development and is practised by international donors, as they define the peace process according to the liberal peace paradigm. We also discuss the narrative of the Oslo peace process, understood as a structural and ideological framework that serves as a control matrix and is complemented by the aforementioned forms of colonialisms, and which eventually manages to legitimize them.Keywords: Palestine, liberal peace, colonialism, Oslo Accords
