This briefing outlines the steps Colombian President Alvaro Uribe must take to build on the progress made in his first term. To ensure that the country does not slide back into chaos, the authors emphasize that Uribe has to define a second-term strategy for peace and development that addresses drug trafficking, poverty, corruption and social inequality comprehensively. They consider military investment, rule of law, peace negotiations and rural investment as key factors to long-term security.
