ZILAS winter lecture series
The winter lecture series, which has been in existence at the KU since 2008, is an expression of the work of ZILAS for the interdisciplinary pooling of Latin America research. Each year, the series deals with an overarching topic with relevance for current social processes in Latin America, which is being approached from the perspectives of various disciplines. It is also the goal of the lecture series to gain insights into the perspectives and methods of disciplines that do not have a special profile in Latin American research at the KU. In recent years, ZILAS has successfully invited guest scholars who have enriched the department of Latin American Studies in Eichstätt with ethnological, natural science and economic contributions.
