Hernando de Soto, 1941, is currently Co-Chairman of the UN High Level Commission for the Legal Empowerment of the Poor. He is also President of the Institute for Liberty and Democracy (ILD) – headquartered in Lima, Peru – considered by “The Economist” as one of the two most important think tanks in the world. “TIME Magazine” chose him as one of the five leading Latin American innovators of the century in its special May 1999 issue “Leaders for the New Millennium,” and included him among the 100 most influential people in the world in 2004.

In October 2005, over 20,000 readers of “Prospect Magazine” and “Foreign Policy” ranked him among the top 13 public intellectuals.
