In granting the Prince of Asturias Award for Social Sciences to Juan Velarde Fuertes, the Jury wishes to acknowledge the long, fruitful career of an economist whose exemplary and generous moral and intellectual influence has spanned several generations of economists; whose research work has patiently and constantly covered the many disciplines that make up the study of the economic structure of Spain and the history of Spanish economic policy and thinking; and whose professional dedication, combined with a real desire to find solutions to our contemporary economic problems, are demonstrated by his active involvement in the fields of economic reporting and consultancy, and his continued responsibility in the public service in our economic administration.
