    This document outlines a capstone project focusing on wealth inequality in Latin America. It will examine how limited resources are allocated and wealth is distributed through studying Latin American economics. Over the summer, the student will read a book arguing that Latin America's stagnation stems from dependence on developed nations. In the fall, the student will conduct an independent study exploring topics like how globalization affects inequality, political instability's impact on development, and economic issues in specific countries. The project could culminate in a fundraiser for an organization addressing effects of inequality.
