Anthony H. Cordesman,
CSIS Arleigh A. Burke Chair in StrategyFor more than a decade the people of Colombia have been engaged in an effort to establish legitimate state authority in the face of illegal armed groups fueled by income from narcotics. This report by the CSIS Americas Program examines Colombia’s progress in restoring security to much of the country and evaluates the effectiveness of U.S. assistance to Colombia. The lessons learned from that experience have broader implications for Colombia’s future, for U.S. policy in Afghanistan, and for confronting challenges to security and stability in weak states in other areas of the world.
