In the second section of the IPEG Financialization in Latin America webinar series, we turn our attention to howfinancial imperatives penetrate households within a context of subordinated integration. Dr. Tomás Nougués willshed light on Argentina’s evolving social security system and illustrate how it became a pivotal mechanism forintegrating households into financial markets—tracing this transformation from the 1990s to the present. Byrevealing the intersection of state policies, institutional reforms, and everyday life, this session aims to deepen ourunderstanding of how financialization materializes in household practices and experiences.
Tomás Nougués holds a Ph.D. in Sociology from the Escuela Interdisciplinaria de Altos Estudios Sociales, Universidad Nacional de San Martín where he currently serves as a postdoctoral fellow. His research agenda focuseson the expansion of financial markets in Latin America and examines how public policy shapes socio-economicoutcomes for households, particularly in contexts marked by precariousness and peripheral financial integration.
