Welcome

I am Marcos Falcone, a political scientist and an essayist originally from Argentina. I am currently a Policy Analyst on Latin America at the Cato Institute's Center for Global Liberty and Prosperity as well as an Associate Professor of Political Science at Universidad del CEMA and a Young Fellow at the UCEMA Friedman Hayek Center for the Study of a Free Society. My research interests range from contemporary public policy in my home country of Argentina to the history, theory, and language of libertarianism. This is where I share my latest articles as well as other projects.

My peer-reviewed research has been (or will be) published in journals such as The Independent Review (forthcoming), the Journal of Libertarian Studies, and Procesos de mercado, among others. My essays have won prizes by the Mont Pelerin Society, the Ayn Rand Center, the European Center of Austrian Economics Foundation, and Caminos de Libertad, among others.
