HS/PO 340 - Human Rights in Latin America

Humans Rights in Chile and Latin American is a course oriented to contribute to the intercultural development of IES Abroad students in Chile through reflection, critical analysis, and debate. To achieve this goal, the course covers a range of subjects related to fundamental human’s rights during the twentieth century and the first part of the twenty-first century. This reflection is based on an interdisciplinary perspective of political science, with the purpose of achieving a global and comprehensive vision of the phenomena. In turn, students are going to understand the development of the republican history in Latin-America from the most important process which allowed the configuration of the states and its relation to fundamental human’s rights.
