Biography

Born on 5 August 1946 in Santander,[1] he obtained a PhD degree in Political Science and Sociology at the Complutense University of Madrid (UCM).[2] He became a member of the Spanish Socialist Workers' Party (PSOE) in 1973,[2] and became linked to the guerrista faction within the party.[3]
