contents Care and social suffering: nursing within contexts of political violence Beatriz Elena Arias-López Medicina violence Nursing care In light of the armed conflict and political violence in Colombia the contribution of nursing professionals is fundamental in caring for individuals, families, and communities, whose experience because of these types of events has been devastating, not only for their physical health, but for their psychic and emotional stability. Due to this, we give way to some brief considerations on the armed conflict and political violence in Colombia. Thereafter, the notion of social suffering is included as a perspective that broadens the horizon of care within this context, then we review the elements that characterize the perspectives and domains of nursing and the possibilities offered by the new epistemological tendencies to reflect on life, as a central focus of care, from the proposals by Afaif Meleis; and, finally we discuss the role of nursing professionals in the restitution of the dignity of those who have experienced the consequences of the armed conflict. 2013 artículo científico 0120-5307 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=105226364014 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=1052 Investigación y Educación en Enfermería application/pdf Universidad de Antioquia Investigación y Educación en Enfermería (Colombia) Num.1 Vol.31
