Latin America’s Crisis: The End of the Commodity Super-Cycle, or the Return of Neoliberalism?

Summary:
From this announcement about my talk at Keene State College today at 7pm. "Professor Vernengo will offer a public lecture and discussion of the recent slowdown in economic growth. The talk will consider the degree to which these events reflect the fall in primary commodity prices, particularly oil, or are instead the result of a return to neoliberal policy prescriptions. Dr. Vernengo is currently Full Professor of Economics at Bucknell University. He is the former Senior Manager of Economic Research at the Central Bank of Argentina, and has acted as an external consultant for the International Labor Office (ILO), United Nations Development Program (UNDP), the Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC), and the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD).

Robert Skidelsky writes Lord Skidelsky to ask His Majesty’s Government what is their policy with regard to the Ukraine war following the new policy of the government of the United States of America.
