Peacebuilding policies implemented in Colombia offer an unparalleled opportunity to study where the field of peacebuilding may be moving in the decades to come. As such, this special issue's articles categorise and investigate the most significant insights that emanate from recent practice. They not only scrutinise the competition between developmental and liberal peacebuilding but also show the importance of integrating other key endogenous and exogenous dynamics into the process of introspection of what peacebuilding ought to achieve. In doing so, they bring forward new ideas that address the urgent need to rethink the future of peacebuilding as we know it.
