The professor at the New School for Social Research in New York, Federico Finchelstein, affirmed that there are people who need simple and magical explanations to explain almost everything, in dialogue with José Antonio Montenegro in GloboEconomy.

In addition, he added that "the need not to think, not to educate oneself" is a risk for democracy, which fosters situations in which dictatorships are on the rise.
