Daniel Fuentes, economist and professor: “Generosity in pensions does not mean abundance”

Daniel Fuentes Castro, an economist and professor at the University of Alcalá, has written a book titled "Nadie elige cuándo nace" (Ed. Shackleton) that explores the economic singularity of each generation. He aims to calm the cultural war between generations through scientific evidence and data. Fuentes Castro argues that an intergenerational income pact is necessary to prevent inequality, and while compensations may be needed, they are not the top priority. The author, born in Ourense in 1975, presents his findings in the book.
