Will Javier Milei Succeed in Argentina?

Mark Klugmann is a policy reforms strategist with four decades of experience advising political leaders in the United States and Latin America. Klugmann has advised seven presidents in Latin America and has helped their governments to design and win approval of multiple financial, regulatory, and infrastructure reforms. In the White House, he was a speech writer to presidents Ronald Reagan and George H.W. Bush, and he also served as assistant director of the White House Outreach Working Group on Central America.

Klugmann is the originator of the reform praxis methodology that accomplishes difficult reforms. The methodology integrates economics, politics, communications, strategy, and management. He has successfully applied the reform praxis to help governments achieve dollarization, privatization, telecommunications, ports, property titles, and security policy, notably without political cost. He advised the country of Georgia on the creation of special jurisdictions to operate under Anglo-Saxon law. In Honduras, he was co-author of the law creating a special jurisdiction, incorporating the model of institutional leapfrogging, and was appointed by the president and confirmed by the Congress as a commissioner.

Mark has lectured on public policy in 36 countries to audiences from such institutions as Harvard University’s Kennedy School, the World Bank, the Mont Pelerin Society, the Global Financial Summit in Nassau, the Latin American Business Council, the Free University of Tbilisi, the Catholic University of Chile, and the Federation of Private Entities of Central America, Panama, and the Dominican Republic.
