The first book I read when I began studying Economics was The Economic Growth of Brazil by Celso Furtado. I continued with Economic Development of Latin America, by the same author. Both were gifts from my father, a left-wing Peruvian mathematician profoundly interested in Latin-American politics. They preceded any contact with economic manuals and have guided, in different ways, my work and understanding of society. After reading Furtado, I discovered Raul Prebisch, the Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean, Marx, Keynes, and Schumpeter. Pluralism has been a central element in my formation as an Economist, and I genuinely believe this is a crucial part of a real-world approach to teaching Economics. This approach is based on my experience as a student, teaching assistant, and practitioner with diverse and interdisciplinary colleagues. Here, you can access a brief description of the courses I have taught in different institutions.
