Andres Schipani

I have a Ph.D. in Political Science from the University of California, Berkeley. I am assistant professor at the Department of Social Sciences, Universidad de San Andrés (UDESA), and researcher at the Instituto Universitario CIAS.

My research agenda focuses on the political economy of redistribution in Latin America. My book project analyzes the different social policy models adopted in Latin America during the commodity boom of the 2000s. My research has been published by The Journal of Comparative Politics, Cornell University Press, Desarrollo Económico, and Revista SAAP, and has been awarded the "Dorothy Day" award for the best article on labor politics from the American Political Science Association (APSA), selected as best paper of 2022 by the political institutions section of the Latian American Studies Association, and with an honorable mention from REPAL Annual Conference.

Previously, I was awarded a Fulbright scholarship to pursue my doctoral studies in the United States. My research has been funded by the Center for Latin American Studies (UC Berkeley), the Institute for Research on Labor and Employment (UC Berkeley), the Fondo para la Investigación Científica y Tecnológica (FONCYT), and the Consejo Nacional de Investigaciones Científicas y Técnicas (CONICET).
