Abstract
The Comunidad de Paz de San José de Apartadó (Peace Community) is a group of peasant farmer settlements in Northern Colombia who have used signage to unilaterally declare neutrality in the Colombian armed conflict. This chapter looks at the signs displayed by the Community as objects of international law and discusses the implications for the development and localization of international law. The chapter explores how the Community has adopted concepts of international law to carve out a space to resist the violence that surrounds them. The chapter also describes how the signs detail informal internal law, with adorned handwritten internal Community rules, and looks at the aspirations and principles conveyed by the signs’ design.
和平社区(Comunidad de Paz de San joss de Apartadó)是哥伦比亚北部的一群农民定居点,他们在哥伦比亚武装冲突中使用标语单方面宣布中立。本章着眼于作为国际法对象的共同体所展示的标志,并讨论其对国际法发展和本土化的影响。本章探讨欧共体如何采用国际法的概念来开辟一个空间,以抵抗围绕在他们周围的暴力。本章还描述了这些标识是如何详细描述非正式的内部法律,以及装饰的手写内部社区规则,并探讨了标识设计所传达的愿望和原则。
