About this programme

"Justicia y desigualdades: Estudios comparativos culturales” is a consecutive interdisciplinary Master’s programme with a cultural studies focus. It is taught entirely in Spanish and on campus (some online sessions are possible) and has an international profile. At the interface of humanities, social sciences and law, it addresses access to justice or overcoming injustices and the reduction of historically persistent intersectional inequalities as global issues for the future. The programme is directed at students from all over the world, primarily students from Latin America who are interested in its thematic orientation.
