Course Description and Objectives In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. In practice, and certainly in Latin America, that difference can be pretty extreme. Despite being a diverse region, rich in resources and human capital, many Latin American countries routinely rank near the bottom of the World Bank’s Annual Ease of Doing Business Index. Even so, in our increasingly globalized world, a working knowledge of Latin American economics, business norms, and etiquette is of increasing importance given the importance of the region to energy markets, logistical chains, tourism and agriculture. Likewise, as domestic economies in countries like Brazil, Mexico and Colombia adapt to the changing retail and service needs of growing middle classes, many American companies have come to see Latin America not just as a potential target for investment, but for expansion as well.

Digital finance Start-up coaxes bank-shy Argentines to ditch cash Coronavirus lockdown helps Tencent-backed Buenos Aires Challenger Ualà grow rapidly MICHAEL STOTT AND BENEDICI MANDER BUENOS AIRES Argentina is one of the world's toughest environments for investors, yet some of the biggest names in technology, including Tencent and SoftBank, have placed their first bets there on a fintech start-up that is reporting explosive growth amid the coronavirus lockdown. Launched in Buenos Aires in 2017 with the aim of persuading citizens in the largely cash-based economy to transact digitally, Ualà says that it has issued more than 1.9m debit cards and is signing up almost 0.5 per cent of Argentina's 44m population every month. "What we expected to happen over years is now happening over weeks," said Pierpaolo Barbieri, the 32-year-old Harvard-educated founder of Ualà. "Since the beginning of the quarantine 35 days ago, we have issued almost 140,000 cards, which is doublé our regular monthly issuance." Mr Barbieri moved his employees from Ualà's hipster warehouse-style offìces in the Argentine capital to work from home 10 days before the government imposed a lockdown in March.

    TESINA DE GRADO Facultad de Ciencia Política y Relaciones Internacionales - Universidad Nacional de Rosario Carrera: Licenciatura en Relaciones Internacionales Título: “Percepciones sobre la política exterior. Los diarios que analizan el comportamiento internacional de Argentina”. Alumno: Bernardita Raya Saudejaud Director: Prof. Roberto Miranda Lugar y fecha: Rosario, 08 de marzo de 2021 Correo electrónico: [email protected] RESUMEN Este trabajo responde a la pregunta: ¿Cómo se construye la percepción externa de los principales medios gráficos de comunicación sobre las expectativas de política exterior del segundo mandato de Cristina Fernández de Kirchner y la presidencia de Mauricio Macri? Para esto, se analiza el contenido de los principales periódicos internacionales de Estados Unidos, España, Brasil y Gran Bretaña. Se parte de la hipótesis de que hay una percepción bastante homogénea en los diarios elegidos, y que éstos forman sus percepciones sobre los gobiernos en base a imágenes preexistentes, comparando sus discursos y expectativas con sus acciones concretas de política doméstica y exterior. Asimismo, se sostiene que el foco no está puesto en la política exterior, y que los medios no ubican a Argentina en la posición que ésta cree ocupar. ABSTRACT This report answers the question on how the external perception of the main news media about the foreign policy expectations on Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner’s second term and the Mauricio Macri’s presidency is constructed. In order to answer this question, this report analyzes the content of the most popular American, Spanish, Brazilian and British international newspapers. It is hypothesized that there is a fairly homogeneous perception in the selected newspapers, and that they create their concepts on governments based on pre-existing images, comparing their speeches and expectations with their concrete actions of domestic and foreign policy.

We hope that you will appreciate the vibrancy of Toronto and the warm congeniality of this magnicent international city as we gather to address the crucial questions that lie ahead of us. The conference, which is called “Human After All: Innovation, Disruption, Society,” will look at the economics of innovation from a variety of perspectives. We will explore innovation in relation to the structures in both the public and private sectors. We will investigate its role in creating and/or ameliorating inequality. And we will examine the potential for innovation to generate wondrous creations and ominous dangers. In addition, we are here to ask broader questions of the profession of economics. We need to envision maps of the economic process that ultimately lead to answers that address the issues of human development, nancial reform, environmental challenges, and corporate governance. We need to explore the implications of non-routine change, some of which is the very byproduct of the process of innovation.
