About

I am a PH.D. Student in History of Economics at the Federal University of Minas Gerais, in the Center for Regional Development and Planning (Cedeplar/UFMG). I have a master's degree in Development Economics at the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul, in the Graduate Program in Economics (PPGE/UFRGS). In my master's thesis, I researched underdevelopment and dependency in the theoretical work of Celso Furtado.

About my research

My field of work is the history of Latin American economic thought and development economics. I am currently working on my doctoral thesis, which deals with the incorporation of space in economic science in the works of Celso Furtado and Albert Hirschman.
