  • Descrição: [...]to Currie, leaders of an Economic Development Center (CEDE) at the Universidad de Los Andes, which was supported in the late 1950s by the Rockefeller Foundation, associated "broader business interests with the public interest and [therefore granted] them intellectual and ethical legitimacy as economic concerns" (127). UniValle, another university in the Cauca Valley, which was supported by the Rockefeller and Ford Foundations, advised by economist Albert Hirschman, and staffed partly by University of Chicago social scientists, trained students to equate productivity and profitability with social progress (rather than focusing on land redistribution, for example). Despite the violent nature of such conflicts, technocrats like Lilienthal remained sanguine about the opportunities for "social entrepreneurship," a phrase that he coined to reference the application of business strategies to social issues, presented by state expansion across the Americas-nowhere more tantalizingly than in the context of US President Johnson's War on Poverty.
