The former Minister of Education, Culture, and Sport, José Ignacio Wertpresented his book The Education in Spain, a Pending Subject in Proa Comunicación's videos celebrating its tenth anniversary. "The state's job is to avoid historical deformations for political purposes," he said forcefully when referring to the Catalan social and political conflict.

Also, he remined us of the context of the law saying that "the Lomce was passed during impossible fiscal and economic conditions."
