Rubén Juste de Ancos (Toledo, 1985) is a Spanish sociologist, researcher and political consultant.

Rubén Juste is a graduate and doctor in Sociology by the Complutense University of Madrid. His doctoral thesis focused on the revolving doors in the IBEX 35.^[1][2]

Due to the Spanish economic crisis, he emigrated to Australia having different occupations. Later, he moved to Latin America, settling first in Paraguay, where he worked in the Universidad Católica "Nuestra Señora de la Asunción" and as a political consultant for the Guasú Front during the term of Fernando Lugo until his dismissal as president. Later he also was an advisor for Avanza País. He left Paraguay to move to Ecuador, working in the Simón Bolívar Andean University.^[3]

Since 2016 he has contributed to CTXT newspaper with diverse analysis of historical and current economic policy.^[4] In 2017 he became a political advisor to the group Unidos Podemos in the Congress.^[5]

Juste's main research has been the close relationship between political and economic elites in Spain. He analyzes how these relationships did manage and still manage the country's politics, from the privatization processes of the large State-owned enterprises, to the loss of sovereignty when those same companies have finally become part of large foreign capitals. Much of this research, pioneer in Spain, is collected in his first book, IBEX 35. Una historia herética del poder en España (IBEX 35. A heretical history of power in Spain).^[6][7][8]
