Capital and ideology

Piketty, Thomas, 1971-2020
Books, Manuscripts
The epic successor to one of the most important books of the century: at once a retelling of global history, a scathing critique of contemporary politics, and a bold proposal for a new and fairer economic system. Thomas Piketty's bestselling 'Capital in the Twenty-First Century' galvanised global debate about inequality. In this audacious follow-up, Piketty challenges us to revolutionise how we think about politics, ideology, and history. He exposes the ideas that have sustained inequality for the past millennium, reveals why the shallow politics of right and left are failing us today, and outlines the structure of a fairer economic system.
