About the event
Can libertarian shock therapy restore stability and long-term growth, or risk unsustainably deepening inequality and turmoil? Since he took office, President Milei's reforms—praised by some as a long-overdue correction to decades of inflation and condemned by others as socially reckless—have ignited fierce debate in Argentina and beyond.
This event confronts two contrasting expert voices on the successes, shortcomings, and broader implications of Milei’s economic experiment. Dr. Carlo Stagnaro (Istituto Bruno Leoni) and Prof. Antonella Mori (ISPI; Bocconi University) will go head-to-head in a public debate moderated by Prof. Elisa Borghi (Bocconi University), examining the consequences of Milei’s policies across key economic dimensions such as growth, inequality, state capacity, and Latin America’s evolving political identity.
The discussion will explore whether radical liberalization can deliver stability and prosperity—or risks deepening Argentina’s social and institutional fractures. Beyond the national context, it will also reflect on how Milei’s reforms are reshaping global conversations about state intervention, fiscal austerity, and economic freedom in the 21st century.
