| Summary: | The present document provides a short overview regarding the issue of discouraging the ownership of agrarian properties in a municipality located in the savannah of Bogotá. In recent decades, economic and social interests have not only affected the welfare of the population but also the image of such town.This article is aimed at showing the important situation that the adjacent municipalities to the capital city face, which have received little scholarly attention. Semi-structured interviews were conducted in order to collect the memories of the inhabitants. Likewise, historicalarchives provided by the local government, some judicial documents along with some excerpts of written press were analyzed for the preparation of this document. In this way, it was possible to elaborate a shallow follow up of this municipality’s recent history regarding the discouraging of the agriculture in this community, as well as the strong emphasis on the property tax which sometimes was related to the armed conflict, the neoliberal measures of the nineties and the democratic security policy. |
