Economists in the Americas: convergence, divergence and connection

Verónica Montecinos, John Markoff and María José Álvarez-Rivadulla

Chapter 1 in Economists in the Americas, 2009 from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: Probably no region’s economists have had greater public visibility or greater impact on regional and national public policy than Latin America’s and no region has been more directly affected by the spread of US economics. Economists in the Americas joins a small but important comparative literature on economics as a profession and is the first comparative treatment of professional economists in the United States and Latin America.
