Uribismo

Uribismo refers to the political ideology and movement associated with Álvaro Uribe, a former president of Colombia (2002-2010). It emphasizes strong security measures, combative stances against guerrilla groups like FARC, and policies aimed at strengthening the economy through free-market principles. Uribismo advocates for state intervention in security while promoting private enterprise and foreign investment. The movement has been influential in Colombian politics, fostering both support for its tough-on-crime policies and criticism regarding human rights issues and political polarization during Uribe's administration. Overall, it's a reflection of the complex socio-political landscape in Colombia.
