Description
Global Inequality: A New Approach for the Age of Globalization by Branko Milanovic presents a bold new account of the dynamics that drive inequality on a global scale. Drawing on vast data sets and cutting-edge research, Milanovic explains the forces that make inequality rise and fall within and among nations. He reveals who has been helped and held back by globalization, and what policies might tilt the balance toward economic justice. This insightful book sheds light on great economic puzzles and challenges tired economic orthodoxies. With its informative and wide-ranging approach, it adds significantly to recent works on inequality, including those of Thomas Piketty, Anthony Atkinson, and François Bourguignon. Ever-rising inequality poses a significant threat to genuine democracy. Milanovic's book brings out these dangers clearly, alongside the important global successes of the past few decades.
