WiSe 13/14: Informal Politics, Coercion and Violence: Latin America in Comparative Perspective

Markus-Michael Müller

Comments

This course introduces students to the coercive and violent dimension of informal politics. The course is organized along a set of thematic and historical sessions that make students familiar with central dimensions of this topic and provide cross-regional comparisons in order to capture commonalities and differences regarding the violent dimension of informal politics in Latin America and beyond. Regular participation as well as very good English language skills are required. close
