BAExpats Econ / Politics Meeting October 9th

[PhilinBSAS]

Cant make it - in London presently. Apologies.

The following may be useful contributions for anyone who wants to start a discussion of the last decade since they give a historical perspective and then stop right at that point!

from SWCollege "Argentina: Peronism and after" - undated but seems to be 2004

Update to the topic; an Argentine friend of mine who got his degree in economics at UBA and studied under Kicillof has agreed to lead this discussion. We've narrowed the topic down to Economics Under The K's. It will be in English and, knowing my friend, it will be very interesting.

Does this happen often? I don't live in Buenos Aires anymore but back in late summer. As a graduate of History and Political Science, I'd love to be a part of this sometime!

I try to get this organized for the second Tuesday of the month. I don't always succeed in getting it together every month, though. But, I try.

Wish you could join us. I don't have my video gear here. Perhaps someone coming has a digital video camera that they can bring?

Just arrived in Buenos Aires, I am not terribly educated on politics here but am interested in learning...Just came from a month in Peru where things (economy!) are on an upswing, what a change to be here now given the current state of things... Anyways, I'd like to sit in and learn more, so if it's alright I hope I can tag along!?

Hi guys. I'm REALLY REALLY REALLY sorry! My friend Rubén and I were sitting there waiting for everyone. And waiting. And waiting. No one showed up. I thought we got stood up, which isn't like the Expats group. He took off. When I got home I checked and I realized we were waiting at the wrong location.

Please forgive me for wasting everyone's time tonight and not being at the location that I scheduled! I'm happy to have Rubén come out at the next meeting if you guys will still have me as part of the group.
