Carlos Escudé, the Argentine polytologist and intellectual, died today as a product of health complications after contracting coronavirus. He was interned for more than two months. In September his wife, the sociologist Monica La Madrid, had died for the same cause. Escudé trained at Yale University in the United States, and was a leading international affairs adviser to the government of Carlos Saul Menem during the 1990s. Before studying in the United States he had trained at Oxford and the Catholic University of Argentina (UCA). He was also a researcher at the Conicet and a professor at several national universities. During his career, he published more than 30 books and hundreds of academic and journalistic publications. Within his vision as an international relations analyst, Escudé defended the theory of peripheral realism, a school of thought that proposes that non-central states, such as Argentina, should avoid confronting the powers, so as not to pay high economic and social costs. In recent years, he publicly expressed his position in favour of former President Cristina Kirchner, especially in the memorandum’s case with Iran.
