description This text aims to clear analytical gaps in regards to the Colombian union movement during the Violence period, and regarding ideologies expressed in it and which interact with it. It illustrates how the union movement manifested in the union central, the Colombian Workers Confederation (CTC), defined as a political union, confronts an offensive, which begins with the legislation from Lopez Pumarejo. This legislation consecrates demands from the union movement, while restricting the use of strikes. At the same time, it removes the importance of union federations and strengthens base unionism in order to restrict it to economic demands. Discourses converge from various sectors from liberals, conservatives, and the church, proposing an apolitical approach as a policy to promote within the union movement, in the middle of a debate, exceeded by the repression and division of the union movement. One of its episodes, is the strike by the National Federation of River, Sea, and Air Transportation (FEDENAL), which, as the study demonstrates, has been overestimated by the historiography of the union movement by being illustrated as the confrontation that liquidates the federation and leaves the political union movement in a terminal state. The offensive is evidenced as a much more complex and sustained process, and it is not able to settle accounts with the so-called political union movement.
