Joaquin Ladeuix

Joaquín Ladeuix holds a Bachelor’s Degree in History from Universidad Di Tella. He graduated ‘summa cum laude’ with a thesis on economic history that compared Argentina, Australia, and Canada during the First Globalisation. Its results have been discussed in argentine radio and print media. He is now studying for a Master’s Degree in Historical Investigation at Universidad de San Andrés, with a research project about Latin America’s participation in the United Nations Conferences on Trade and Development (UNCTAD) of the 1960s. The project hopes to illuminate various themes: the globalization of economic ideas produced in the Latin-American context of the 1950s; its influence in the formation of the still-existent G77; and the functioning of global economic discussions. Joaquín strongly believes in the importance of Humanities in contemporary societies and strives for a higher engagement of historians in public debates. In 2019, he was selected by the Fulbright Commission in Argentina to participate in a three-week-long Young Leaders Program held at Massachusetts University and Washington D.C. He has won prizes from Argentina’s National Academy of History and Universidad Di Tella.
