Remembering Eugenia Correa and Her Vision for the Future: Introduction

Abstract

Abstract The purpose of this introductory piece is to offer readers an understanding of Eugenia Correa, who was one of Mexico’s foremost heterodox economists, and her important ideas. In the article, we describe our professional association with her for over 30 years and identify some common research agendas that were pursued over this long period. We also highlight some key elements of Eugenia Correa’s economic thought and why some of her ideas from the 1990s prove to be prescient since they are so appropriate to understanding our times.
