Incipient rural development was recognised in the peace agreement, signed between the Colombian government and the Armed Forces of Colombia People’s Army (FARC-EP), as one of the causes of the armed conflict. However, social margins and precarious conditions are not exclusive to the countryside; exclusion also occurs in urban centres. Using ethnographic methods, we visited three areas of reincorporation to identify the socio-economic practices of collective productive projects. The findings suggest that the social solidarity economy is a promising alternative led by FARC-EP ex-combatants and host communities to resist socio-economic exclusion.KEYWORDS: Collective turnsocial and solidarity economyhost communityFARC-EPterritorial developmentDDR Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Notes1 Gobierno de Colombia, Fuerzas Armadas Revolucionarias de Colombia-Ejército del Pueblo (FARC-EP).

This article makes the case for broadening this empirical scope to cities in non-war contexts, which are considered ‘at peace’ but where politicians regularly declare war on e.g. drugs and terrorism. Experiences of violence, such as riots, youth violence and the aftermaths of terrorist attacks in a marginalised social housing neighbourhood in Grenoble (France) serve as the empirical grounding of this argument. Participatory action research with different collectives in this neighbourhood shows that community initiatives were able to have a positive impact on the destructive consequences of different forms of paroxysmal violence. These collectives initiated action in the aftermath of paroxysmal violence. One of them placed peace at the heart of its approach. By weaving everyday relationships its members could repair the social tissue that violence had destroyed.KEYWORDS: Peaceurban violenceterrorismcitizenshipanti-Muslim racismhealing AcknowledgmentsI would like to thank all those involved in Agir pour la Paix for having taught me important lessons in life.
