Abstract

This article analyzes the foreign policy of Colombia from 1950 to 2010 and US influence in its design and implementation. It shows how Colombia strengthened its status as a strategic part- ner framing its foreign policy in the doctrine called Réspice Polum5, being almost completely far from other options in economic and political matters, despite having made the Réspice Similia6. This study is qualitative, bibliographical and descriptive. It was demonstrated with this, the market need and loans during the early twentieth century and the inability of Colombia to con- trol internal security problems. It was concluded that this has made an almost structural de- pendency in the relationship with the US, and that has been the axis around which Colombia’s international activities in the economic, political and particularly on issues of internal security have turned.
