In 2011, the European Consortium for Political Research (ECPR) initiated the first “Summer School on Latin American Politics”. The next school will take place at the GIGA German Institute of Global and Area Studies in Hamburg from the 26th of June to the 5th of July 2013.
Each edition of the summer school dedicates ten days to intensive seminars and workshops to provide theoretical and conceptual support for the development of doctoral research. It aims furthermore to improve the academic offer on Latin American politics to doctoral students of political science (broadly including government, politics and international relations).
The third summer school will address topics related to the functioning and outcomes of democratic regimes in Latin American.
