Latin America as a topic

Kassel also has an interdisciplinary focus on Latin America, not only in Romance studies, but also in political science and history. An interest in politics can be optimally combined with intercultural issues and the topic of Latin America: The B.A. Political Science course, for example, provides for a combination with Spanish as a minor subject. Latin American studies in this variant are optimally accompanied by the CELA/Kassel ("Centro de estudios latinoamericanos") - this is a research center that organizes events, discussion groups and meetings on current political and cultural trends.
