Ingrid’s research focuses on the political economy of Latin America, especially Mexico and Argentina. She has written on the relationship between informality and corruption, and about the long-run relationship between wages, well-being, and inequality. Her book Vendors' Capitalism: A Political Economy of Public Markets in Mexico has been published by Stanford University Press (2021). She is currently working on interdisciplinary approaches to socio-economic inequality. In collaboration with Oxfam Mexico and the magazine Chilango, she implemented a new mixed-methods approach to multidimensional inequality in Mexico City. At present she is researching the link between inequality and social reproduction arrangements in Buenos Aires.
