Equality Is a Struggle (Thomas Piketty)

An acclaimed economist's observations on four years of events that have shaped the world. In this new volume of essays, renowned economist Thomas Piketty takes measure of the world since 2020: leaders grappling with the aftershocks of the global pandemic; politics shifting rightward in France and elsewhere; and wars breaking out and escalating, from Russia's invasion of Ukraine to the conflict in Israel and Gaza. These essays are Piketty's vivid first draft of history-on the rise of China, the climate crisis, income and taxation, discrimination, and beyond-as well as a blueprint for achieving equity in our rapidly changing global landscape. Despite the gathering clouds, Piketty continues to find reasons for hope.
