Abstract
PEZZANO, Luciano and GODIO, Leopoldo M. A.. Lo que necesita este país es más internacionalistas: el recurso a la serie animada Los Simpson para la enseñanza del derecho internacional. Relac. int. [online]. 2021, vol.30, n.61, pp.43-53. ISSN 2314-2766. http://dx.doi.org/https://doi.org/10.24215/23142766e119.
This paper aims at discussing the use of the well-known animated television series The Simpsons as a multifunctional instrument for the design of new methodological strategies to teach international law. Given that its use for pedagogical purposes in other disciplines has been well documented –and since its impact on our country's popular culture has marked several generations of students–, this proposal suggests that the richness in The Simpsons’ plot provides lots of examples that bring students closer to the most diverse issues addressed in public international law. The series also allows for the development of activities entirely focused on some of its episodes, from which a specific case is provided.
