The distribution of antioquia’s territory among illegal armed groups: a model of stability territorial and strategic assessment

Abstract

The geographical features play an important role in location decisions to be taken by actors in the conflict armed: illegal groups, regular forces and civilians. In this case, I proposed a model of territorial stability and an index of strategic assessment, developed under the methodology of networks and application to rural areas of the department of Antioquia to find kernels of action - stable territories - the FARC, ELN and Paramilitares, discovering the profile of geographical features and environment optimal for each illegal group. Finally, is the distribution of territory antioqueño between illegal armed actors.
