Who is Andrés Malamud?
Andrés Malamud is an Argentine political scientist, researcher, and academic with a distinguished international career. He is an expert in comparative politics, regional integration processes, and in-depth analysis of democratic institutions in Latin America and Europe. His methodical approach and extensive academic experience have made him an indispensable authority on the analysis of the political landscape and global trends.
He received his education in Argentina, where he earned a Bachelor’s degree in Political Science with honors from the University of Buenos Aires (UBA). He subsequently expanded his academic career in Europe, culminating in a Ph.D. in Social and Political Sciences from the prestigious European University Institute, located in Florence, Italy. This dual education across two continents has been fundamental to his comparative perspective, enabling him to analyze regional political dynamics with a global vision and to identify institutional patterns.
Throughout his career, he has served as a Principal Researcher at the Institute of Social Sciences at the University of Lisbon in Portugal. His research focuses on how democratic institutions function, the evolution of party systems, and the complex dynamics of regional integration, with a particular focus on Mercosur and the lessons of the European Union. His academic publications are highly cited, and his interests span foreign policy and the identification of the causes of political instability.
The political scientist has established himself as a public intellectual and science communicator, actively contributing to the political debate. He is the author of influential books such as The Oldest Profession in the World: Secrets, Lies, and the Beauty of Politics, a work that seeks to shed light on how politics works for the general public. His message advocates for a “hopeful realism” that diagnoses Latin America’s structural challenges without succumbing to pessimism, always promoting rigorous analysis to inform decision-making.
