This course is presented as a professional development workshop, whose general objective is to work with students on the theoretical and practical skills necessary to analyze the political situation through written documents and oral presentations. With this objective in mind, the course proposes the revision of key elements for a correct contingent and prospective political analysis: conceptual clarity, analytical rigor, and formal structure, deepening the interest in the national and international political situation. The course participants will be confronted, in an essentially practical way, with the systematic analysis of political events, with the purpose of acquiring analytical skills that will allow them to define and interpret such events.

This course adopts a multidisciplinary approach to studying European and Latin-American regional integration from the beginning to the current situation and future challenges. This with a predominantly legal and institutional emphasis but also political, historical, and economic perspectives so as to comprehensibly understand this matter. On the other hand, this course proposes to study these regional integration processes through a comparative approach, regarding the objectives of its creation, institutions, and standard policies.

This elective course presents a general overview of the main issues on Latin American political development and its current global engagement. The main question we hope to answer is: why have democracy and economic development been so difficult to accomplish in the region? We will focus mainly on Chile, Argentina, Peru, Uruguay, Brazil, Colombia, and Mexico.

The course will be divided into three parts. The first one focuses on historical, economic, and political legacies that may have deferred the process of democratization and economic development of the region. The second part of the program focuses on the main political actors (collective and institutional) engaged in the Latin American political arena and their efforts to promote (or suppress) political participation. The last section of the course concentrates on Latin America in the international arena and its political and economic projections in the globe, especially with the US, the EU, and China.
