In this sense, this article analyzes citizen cooperation for the case of the Constituent of Tarsus, having as fundamental basis being the first land of peace by requiring the armed groups to exclude them from military confrontation which subsequently evolved so successful towards new forms of governance (Constituent Assembly) that enabled the economic and social development of the municipality.
