Claudia Sanhueza mentions her economic referents in La Segunda newspaper

The Director of Ceas recommended economist Mariana Mazzucato and the winner of the Nobel Prize in Economics, Joseph Stiglitz

Claudia Sanhueza, Director of the Center for Economy and Social Policies, participated in an article in the newspaper La Segunda entitled “Who to look for by 2020?”, Which brought together the opinions of Chilean economists who talked about the most promising characters in the international economy.

The economist and academic of University College London, Mariana Mazzucato, was one of Claudia Sanhueza's favorites, since Mazzucato has a particular vision of economic development, “the entrepreneurial State”, in which it states that it is not the private initiative that has achieved the greatest technological changes and innovations, but it has been the direct participation of the State in research and development that has produced the technological advances.

The second economist mentioned was Joseph Stiglitz, winner of the Nobel Prize in Economics in 2001, who talks about the deepening of the financial system and the flow of capital that can cause economic crises.

According to Claudia Sanhueza, the way in which Chile is affected by these crises is due to the fact that "we do not have any disincentive to financial investment and also our pensions depend a lot on what happens to the capitals."
