In '¡Basta!', Federico Mayor Zaragoza presents an exposition of his thought, articulated around the great themes that have marked his defense of human rights. The author advocates for a rearmament based on universal values such as tolerance and solidarity, and raises the need for a culture of peace against the impositions of the market and a ruthless globalization. After noting the failure of neoliberalism, Mayor Zaragoza defends the importance of returning power to institutions and preventing the fate of millions of people from continuing to be managed by a few.
