Le Capital Au XXIe Siècle (2013) - Plot & Excerpts

Un'opera che davvero aggiorna l'idea di pensiero economico centrato sui temi della giustizia e dell'equitá. Non belle parole ma dati. Dati veri. E la chiave di lettura di questa montagna di dati, per capire come funzionano le dinamiche dei capitali.La lettura di questo librone non é proprio semplice. Per le persone non addette ai lavori richiede un po' di buona volontá, ma é possibile. Per chi vuole capire dove stiamo andando, uno sforzo che merita. Using extensive data, Thomas Piketty derives powerful conclusions about the mathematical inevitability of inequality, in an unhindered capitalist world where capital returns are higher than growth. This conclusion could be combined with other recent works, such as Martin Ford (Lights in the Tunnel), about the progressive replacement of labour by capital itself, or Jean-Marc Jancovici, about the correlation between growth and the supply of energy. Unfettered, this array of causes leads us to a world characterised by large inequalities, high unemployment rate, and class stratification, all this even accelerated by rapidly accelerating technology. A world not unlike "A brief history of the future" by Jacques Attali.It seems the only way out will be a more imaginative economic framework than the current one. Here, Thomas Piketty suggests progressive taxes on capital, a kind of hyped tax on wealth as exists in France and other countries. This, however, seems prospective at best, in a world where nations keep competing for capital.

In all fairness there is no way I was going to read nearly 700 pages of this pretentious crap.
