Inauguration of the “Fernando Fajnzylber” Conference room and presentation of cepal review no. 50: Gert rosenthal and alejandro foxley

Today, we are celebrating three important events at the same time. The first of these is that issue No. 50 of CEPAL Review has just come out, thus marking 19 years of uninterrupted publication. We are justly proud of the high level attained by this Review, which firs tappeared under the direction of Raúl Prebisch and later continued under the leadership of Aníbal Pinto, ably seconded first of all by Adolfo Gurrieri and now by Eugenio Lahera. I should like to express my thanks to all of them and to say how pleased I am that the Review is now considered one of the most serious technical publications in the field of Latin American and Caribbean development.
