The change of the Center for Economic Research and Teaching (CIDE) “will be promoted, perhaps a little slower than expected, but with a clear call to open the center’s pluralistic academic space to all currents of thought, not only to the hegemonic one, which has been imposed in. many cases from other latitudes of the planet”. stated José Antonio Romero Tellaeche, director general of the public research center.
In an interview with La Jornada, presenting a book on various thoughts on neoliberalism, he stated that “we did not have any academic from CIDE, some decided to go to other institutions, such as the University of Guadalajara; but not fired. What we had were various changes in the administrative area, like in any change of agency”.
He added that as part of the effort to open new spaces for thinking, teaching and research, a new Study Program Division was created in CIDE and also “we seek to have academic proposals from different perspectives that help more pluralistic institutions.” “.
Romero Tellaeche confirmed that the global challenges facing the planet require “having experts in economics and other disciplines who think of finding solutions to complex problems, but who do so from a more national and Latin American perspective.”
For this reason, he said, “CID wants students to come from all institutions, especially public universities, which have high-level students interested in pursuing postgraduate degrees at CIDE.” Let’s review very carefully, within the current regulatory framework, which is not limited because of a certain type of studies, who enters and who does not “.
He asserted that the institution of education and public research, which operates with resources from the treasury, “cannot admit any kind of fees or maintain within the academic divisions that limit access to Mexican students who have the requirements to receive, even if they have not studied in the United States or in the United States In the United States or in any other country.
