In this audacious follow-up, Piketty challenges us to revolutionize 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. Our economy, Piketty observes, is not a natural fact. Markets, profits, and capital are all historical constructs that depend on choices. Piketty explores the material and ideological interactions of conflicting social groups that have given us slavery, serfdom, colonialism, communism, and hypercapitalism, shaping the lives of billions. He concludes that the great driver of human progress over the centuries has been the struggle for equality and education and not, as often argued, the assertion of property rights or the pursuit of stability. The new era of extreme inequality that has derailed that progress since the 1980s, he shows, is partly a reaction against communism, but it is also the fruit of ignorance, intellectual specialization, and our drift toward the dead-end politics of identity. Once we understand this, we can begin to envision a more balanced approach to economics and politics. Piketty argues for a new "participatory" socialism, a system founded on an ideology of equality, social property, education, and the sharing of knowledge and power"--   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status Due Date   Aina Haina Public Library Adult Nonfiction 305 Pi Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hawaii Kai Public Library Adult New Books 305 Pi Lost 07/06/2020 Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library Social Science & Philosophy 305 Pi Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 305 Piketty Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kailua-Kona Public Library Adult Nonfiction 305 Pi Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kapaa Public Library Adult Nonfiction 305 Pi Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Mililani Public Library Adult Nonfiction 305 Pi Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Nanakuli Public Library Adult Nonfiction 305 Pi Item being held   Add Copy to MyList
