Global Implications of Chile's Neoliberal Revolution
What were the consequences of the rise and fall of neoliberalism in Chile? How do these impact the markets today? Explore the significant events that shaped Chile's economic landscape, from the U.S. State Department's "Chile Project" in 1955 to the implementation of a pure neoliberal model by the "Chicago Boys" during General Augusto Pinochet's regime. This is not just a story about one Latin American country; it sheds light on the history of neoliberalism and its global implications.
VanEck CEO Jan van Eck and El Dorado CEO Melvin Escudero are joined by distinguished author and UCLA professor Sebastian Edwards who will share the captivating story told in his book, The Chile Project: The Story of the Chicago Boys and the Downfall of Neoliberalism.
- Factors that led to the dissatisfaction with neoliberalism, including the protests that shook Chile in 2019
- Key ideas and theories that the “Chicago Boys” brought to Chile and how they shaped the country's economic policy
- Evolution of mining in Chile and the issues with lithium, copper, iron ore, gold, and silver
