En el año 1.963, el entonces historiador recién graduado, Malcolm Deas, viajó por primera vez a Colombia.
Él siguió adelante para dedicar la mayoría de su carrera profesional a la historia de este país, incluso en un cargo como consultor al ex presidente César Gaviria.
En esta entrevista, el profesor Deas relata sus primeros días en Colombia y luego nos da sus pensamientos sobre los asuntos más pertinentes que afectan el estado hoy en día.
Éstos incluyen el legado del ex presidente Álvaro Uribe a quien considera como "el salvador del país" cuando asumió la presidencia en 2.002. Habla también de las manifestaciones masivas y el rol del Esmad en ellas, el proceso de paz, su rechazo de la noción de una oligarquía Colombiana y por qué Virgilio Barco, cuya biografía acaba de publicar, fue un líder ejemplar

In 1963, the then recently graduated Oxford historian Malcolm Deas made his first, somewhat unplanned visit to Colombia.
He would go on to devote the majority of his career to the history of this country, even serving as an advisor to former president César Gaviria.
Here, Professor Deas recounts his early days in Colombia before giving us his considered thoughts on the more pertinent issues affecting the nation today.
These include the legacy of controversial former president Álvaro Uribe, whom he regards as being "the saviour of the country" in 2002, street protests and the role of Esmad, the peace process, his rejection of the notion of a Colombian oligarchy and why Virgilio Barco, whose biography he has just published, was an exemplary leader
