We learned last week of the passing of Carlos Acuña, professor of political science at the Universidad Nacional de San Martín. He was an early Kellogg visiting fellow and part of the Institute's formative years. Our gratitude to @bgarciaholgado.bsky.social for this beautiful tribute: bit.ly/45HIVTw
