Synopsis of Econofakes

«Econofakes» is an essay by Juan Torres López, published by Deusto in paperback (184 pages, in Spanish).

Professor of Applied Economics Juan Torres López analyzes ten widespread economic falsehoods, such as scarcity being the central problem of economics, cutting wages being necessary to create jobs, or aging making pensions unpayable. The author argues that these ideas, presented as objective science, serve to justify the concentration of wealth and the restriction of rights, and defends a critical reading of the dominant economic model.
