«El mercado y la globalización» is the economics primer by José Luis Sampedro, published by Booket in paperback (128 pages, in Spanish).
José Luis Sampedro clearly analyses the essential mechanisms of the economic system: the market, competition, monopolies and the stock exchange. He explains how they work and why globalisation breeds discontent, inviting reflection on its flaws from a critical and accessible perspective.
The work was originally published in 2002; the 2013 Booket edition belongs to the Actualidad collection and includes a prologue by the author.
For readers who want to approach economics without prior training and for those seeking a critical, reasoned view of globalisation.
José Luis Sampedro Sáez was a Spanish economist and writer who advocated an economy "more humane, more caring, able to help develop the dignity of peoples". Academician of the Real Academia Española since 1990, he was the recipient of the Order of Arts and Letters of Spain, the Menéndez Pelayo International Prize (2010) and the Spanish Literature National Prize (2011). He became an inspiration for the anti-austerity movement in Spain.
