¿Y esto quien lo paga?

The world, and the economy, have changed more in the last three years than in the last three decades. When we had not finished paying the cost of the great financial crisis of 2008, the worst pandemic in a century arrived, which caused millions of deaths around the world, the introduction of the greatest restrictions on freedom that nobody remembers and economic damage brutal. In addition, we have once again encountered a war in Europe, the Russian invasion of the Ukraine.All this has meant that we are facing, once again, an energy crisis just as we were beginning to undertake an ecological transition towards a world with fewer emissions. This panorama has led us, in Spain and throughout Europe, to inflation and impoverishment.Francisco de la Torre tries to explain this situation here, and respond, in clear and accessible language, to the questions that any citizen asks: what are the origins and causes of this succession of economic crises? Can we avoid paying them? Will technological progress get us out of this crisis or exacerbate our problems? Is everything resolved by lowering taxes? Are these part of the problem or the solution? What is the price we will have to pay to get ahead? How is it paid? And, above all, this, who pays for it?Faced with economic, energy, fiscal and environmental populism from the left or the right, the author proposes a book on current economics for adults.
