Abstract

The gap between rich and poor keeps widening. Growth, if any, has disproportionally benefited higher income groups while lower income households have been left behind. This long-run increase in income inequality not only raises social and political concerns, but also economic ones. It tends to drag down GDP growth, due to the rising distance of the lower 40% from the rest of society. Lower income people have been prevented from realising their human capital potential, which is bad for the economy as a whole. This book highlights the key areas where inequalities are created and where new policies are required, including: the consequences of current consolidation policies; structural labour market changes with rising non-standard work and job polarization; persisting gender gaps; the challenge of high wealth concentration, and the role for redistribution policies.

Abstract

Thomas Piketty--whose Capital in the Twenty-First Century pushed inequality to the forefront of public debate--wrote The Economics of Inequality as an introduction to the conceptual and factual background necessary for interpreting changes in economic inequality over time. This concise text has established itself as an indispensable guide for students and general readers in France, where it has been regularly updated and revised. Translated by Arthur Goldhammer, The Economics of Inequality now appears in English for the first time.Piketty begins by explaining how inequality evolves and how economists measure it. In subsequent chapters, he explores variances in income and ownership of capital and the variety of policies used to reduce these gaps. Along the way, with characteristic clarity and precision, he introduces key ideas about the relationship between labor and capital, the effects of different systems of taxation, the distinction between "historical" and "political" time, the impact of education and technological change, the nature of capital markets, the role of unions, and apparent tensions between the pursuit of efficiency and the pursuit of fairness.Succinct, accessible, and authoritative, this is the ideal place to start for those who want to understand the fundamental issues at the heart of one of the most pressing concerns in contemporary economics and politics.Bron: www.standaardboekhandel.be

Abstract

Partant du constat que notre système d’allocation des ressources par le marché arrive à bout de souffle Paul Ariès propose un modèle alternatif fondé sur la gratuité. Ce manifeste croise les revendications mondiales en faveur d’un revenu universel mais va plus loin : la gratuité ne doit pas être considérée comme une mesure d’urgence mais représente le passage vers un nouveau modèle de société, voire une nouvelle conception de la vie. Pour étayer son propos, l’auteur fait le tour des différentes expériences et initiatives en matière de gratuité en France et à l’étranger (gratuité de l’eau, des transports en commun, de la restauration scolaire, des services funéraires, au service juridique, à la santé…), dénonce les idées reçues sur le sujet et fait des propositions pour mettre en œuvre concrètement ce projet.
