Abstract
In Colombia, despite the permanent increase of the population's disenchantment with politics—a phenomenon similar to that of many of the world s nations— the political identities of Colombians still correspond for the most part to formal registration in traditional political parties and to clientelistic practices of electoral participation. With a few particularities, the black populations do not escape this logic. In the nineties, black ethnic movements arose that attempted to constitute new political alternatives and wrest control of the black electorate away from traditional political forces, without positive results as of the present. This essay presents some elements of the electoral political participation of black populations throughout the history of the Colombian state up to the present, with the rise of new black movements; their results; and a few hypotheses that explain them.
