Nestor Lovera Nieto
Lecturer
- Department: Economics and Management
I am Nestor Lovera Nieto, originally from Caracas, Venezuelaaffectionately known as "the Avilas Sultana." My academic journey began with a bachelors degree in economics from the Universidad Central de Venezuela. In 2016, driven by a passion for deeper scholarly exploration, I made the significant decision to pursue postgraduate studies in France. By 2018, I had earned my M.A. in Economics at Universit矇 Lumi癡re Lyon 2. In 2022, I obtained a double doctoral degree: a Doctorate in Economics from Universit矇 de Reims Champagne-Ardenne and a Ph.D. in Management from Neoma Business School. My current research focuses on the transition between the new welfare economics and social choice theory, which I analyze primarily through extensive archival work. During 2023-2024, I served as a Research Scholar at Duke University. I am currently a part-time lecturer at the American University of Paris.
