In this article, he reflects on the social role of economists beyond numbers and markets. The author argues that economics is a discipline that should serve collective well-being and that economists must contribute sound judgment, rigor, and analytical capacity to support public and private decision-making in an increasingly complex environment. He also highlights the ethical responsibility of the profession, warning against ideological simplifications and reminding readers that economic policies have real consequences for people's lives. Ultimately, he presents the economist as a professional who must combine technical expertise, critical thinking, and a commitment to the public interest.
