The course focuses on a variety of issues regarding Latin America development. Topics range from the long term (economic and institutional determinants of productivity and inequality) to the short term (episodes of inflation, stabilization, and crises, and comparative performance of different Latin American economies). Accordingly, there will be a mixture of the historical and the contemporary, all accompanied by economic models and quantitative evidence. This course includes visits to companies relevant to the business activities in central Argentina. Special emphasis is given to the visit to Rosario Board of Trade.
