Both have been carried out from a comparative perspective. He has analysed the different ages of welfare development, [1] and has also conceptualized the Mediterranean welfare regime [2] within the European Social Model. [3]
In his 1986 PhD dissertation [4] he introduced in the Anglo-Saxon academic world what is known as ‘the Moreno Question’, by which a self-identification scale expressed by citizens in Scotland was meant to clarify social mobilization in the quest for political autonomy (‘Only Scottish, not British’; ‘More Scottish than British’; ‘Equally Scottish as British’; ‘More British than Scottish’; and ‘Only British, not Scottish).
He has been director of more than 20 research projects awarded by competitive sources by Spanish and European institutions. He has (co) authored nearly 30 books and more than 300 scientific texts. [5] According to Google Scholar, he is the Spanish sociologist and political scientist most cited internationally. [6]

His latest book, ‘Behind Closed Doors. Views on Life Changes’ (& Raul Jimenez, 2021) deals with social effects induced by the Covid-19 pandemic.
