Synopsis "Falacias de la Justicia Social (in Spanish)"

La lucha por la justicia social es una de las principales causas de nuestro tiempo, que interpela a muchas personas diferentes por diversas razones. Pero que se utilicen las mismas palabras no siempre supone estar hablando de lo mismo. Debemos aclarar los significados para descubrir en que estamos de acuerdo y en que discrepamos. El veterano pensador Thomas Sowell, que lleva mas de seis decadas cuestionando los presupuestos economicos y filosoficos progresistas, demuestra en su ultimo libro que muchas de las cosas que los luchadores de la justicia social creen verdaderas, sencillamente, no resisten una minima confrontacion con los hechos. Este libro, cargado de datos y argumentos, desmonta la vision distorsionada y victimista de la realidad del pensamiento woke que esta arrastrando a la civilizacion occidental hacia el precipicio. Sowell nos recuerda que la agenda de la justicia social a menudo conduce en la direccion opuesta a su ideal, en ocasiones con consecuencias catastroficas.

Thomas Sowell is one of the most recognized American liberal thinkers and economists, and one of the greatest scourges of "politically correct" thought.

He graduated in Economics from Harvard University in 1958 and obtained a master's degree from Columbia University in 1959. In 1968, he earned a PhD in Economics from the University of Chicago.

He worked for decades in administration, academia, and business, until joining the Hoover Institution at Stanford University in 1980, where he is a professor. In 2002, he received the National Humanities Medal, awarded by the President of the United States.

He is the author of numerous books that have been translated into more than twelve languages. In Spanish, he has published Positive Discrimination in the World (Gota a Gota Ediciones, 2006), Conflict of Visions (Gedisa, 2009) and at Deusto, The Economy: Truths and Lies (2008), Basic Economics (2013), and Fallacies of Social Justice (2024).
