Juan Manuel Santos, in full Juan Manuel Santos Calderón, (born August 10, 1951, Bogotá, Colombia), Colombian politician who cofounded (2005) the Social Party of National Unity (Partido Social de Unidad Nacional, or Partido de la U), later served as president of Colombia (2010–18), and was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize ... in 2016 for his efforts to end the protracted war with the Marxist guerrilla organization FARC (Fuerzas Armadas Revolucionarias de Colombia; "Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia").
Santos was born into an influential political family. His great-uncle Eduardo Santos Montejo was Colombia’s president from 1938 to 1942, and his cousin Francisco Santos Calderón served as vice president (2002–10) under Álvaro Uribe Vélez. The family also founded El Tiempo, one of the country’s largest newspapers. Santos attended the Naval Academy of Cartagena before traveling to the United States to earn a B.A. in economics and business at the University of Kansas (1973). After graduating, he headed the Colombian delegation to the London-based International Coffee Organization. While there Santos studied economics, economic development, and public administration at the London School of Economics. He earned a master’s degree in public administration from Harvard University (1981) before returning to Colombia to work as an editor at El Tiempo, where his reporting earned him a number of accolades.
In 1991 Santos became minister of foreign trade under Pres. César Gaviria Trujillo. Two years later he was appointed designee to the presidency, a position that was later folded into the office of vice president. In 1994 Santos was part of a team of negotiators who attempted to reach a peace agreement with the FARC, which had been active in Colombia since the 1960s. He was a leader of the Colombian Liberal Party (Partido Liberal Colombiano) in the late 1990s, and from 2000 to 2002 he served as minister of the treasury and public credit in the cabinet of Pres. Andrés Pastrana.
