Colombia’s FARC party is changing its name to ‘Comunes’ Colombia’s FARC political party, formed after the guerilla group with the same acronym was disbanded, has announced that it is is changing its name to “Comunes,” or “Commons” in English. “I want to inform Colombia and the international community that from today we will bear the name #Comunes, because we are a party of common people working for a just country with well-being for common people,” Rodrigo Londoño, the party’s leader, tweeted on Sunday. The change signals a shift away from the country’s history of more than 50 years of armed conflict, which killed at least 220,000 people, including many civilians.
