Drawing on scholarly literature, media sources, legal texts, and documentary materials, students will examine how activists, scholars, and legislators shape debates on human rights, democracy, and social justice. The course covers diverse regional contexts, incorporating intersectional perspectives on gender, race, class, and indigeneity in the Global South. Students will investigate key debates in Global Studies, including human rights, governance, social movements, conflict and resolution, cultures in contact, knowledge and information systems, and global justice. By the end of the seminar, participants will have developed analytical and research skills to critically examine how feminist activism in Latin America connects local struggles with broader global frameworks, engages with cross-cultural and transnational issues, and applies interdisciplinary approaches to social change.
