What is the JUSTLA project about?
JUSTLA is a consortium of 7 EU universities and 11 Latin American academic institutions. A carefully built network of scholars from these organizations concentrates on new lines of research in political theory that promise to challenge the dominant liberal paradigm of justice. In particular, the project starts from recent studies on the relation between democracy and economic inequality, cultural identities (gender, race, and decolonization), the role of science in politics in the post-truth era, and climate justice.
It engages Latin American institutions because there we find the most advanced developments of these lines of research and because the Latin American social, economic, and political realities are a privileged point of observation from which further developments in these lines of research can be achieved. Coping with a shared belief that justice cannot be defined by philosophy in isolation, the consortium is composed of leading European and Latin American scholars belonging to political philosophy and various other disciplines in the social sciences. A substantial number of early stage researchers are also engaged in a group that jointly promises to enlarge the competence of European and Latin American researchers.
The consortium aims to consolidate and expand pre-existing cooperation and knowledge sharing among European and Latin American academic institutions and to build institutional ties meant to outlive the project.
