The present programme proposal comes from the Doctoral Programme “Ethics and Democracy” which included research lines held by different professors within the Department of Moral and Political Legal Philosophy since 1,987. This programme, existing since the 2000-2001 academic year, became inter-university between the Universitat de València and the Universitat Jaume I from Castellón. Within its trajectory, the programme has obtained very good results for being attractive to Third-Cycle students, as shown by the number of students enrolled in it, the defended doctoral theses and the numerous publications by graduate students; strictly related to their doctoral theses as well as the academic level reached by many of them and their incorporation to labour life with academic responsibility. In the last five academic courses, a total number of 70 students enrolled in it (24 in 2007/08, 28 in 2008/09, 1 in 2009/10, 10 in 2010/11 and 7 in 2011/12) and a total of 26 doctoral thesis have been defended . This trajectory has allowd for the Doctoral Programme to obtain a Quality Award by the Ministry of Education and Science in a continuous way since the 2004-2005 academic year and, since 2011/12 until 2013/14, Award for Excellence by the Ministry of Education.
