Abstract

The main purpose of the research was to understand the representations and meanings that communities give to inhabit the Forest Reserve Zone of the Magdalena River in the municipality of El Bagre, Antioquia, in the village of Puerto López, through the comprehensive-interpretative perspective of hermeneutics using in-depth interviews and discussion groups as techniques for the production of information applied to peasant women and men who have been living in the area for more than 10 years. Although the armed conflict caused terror with events such as displacement, intimidation, exile, social fragmentation and distrust, communities still feel belonging to that region because there they managed to get a piece of land that they consider theirs despite the legal status of Forest Reserve it has. They have the means to subsist, built social networks and consolidated a rooting moved by the identification with their territory of origin.
