Peak Inequality: Britain's Ticking Time Bomb
Autor Danny Dorlingen Limba Engleză Paperback – 16 iul 2018
It’s widely agreed that inequality has become the key political issue of our time. In Peak Inequality, Danny Dorling—an early proponent of rapidly reducing economic inequalities—brings together brand new material alongside a selection of his most recent writing from publications including the Daily Telegraph, the Guardian, and the Financial Times. Addressing key issues like housing, education, and health care, he ultimately asks a crucial question: Have we reached peak inequality?
Dorling concludes by looking to the future. How, he asks, will the UK address the problems created and exacerbated by inequality—especially as it simultaneously tries to negotiate Brexit and react to the wider international situation of a world where people demand a more equal economic and social landscape? Peak Inequality is an informed first step toward answering that question.

Recenzii
“Filled with valuable political ammunition. . . The cumulative effect of his hugely impressive statistical dissections of contemporary British society is to make a compelling case for a political challenge to centuries of exploitation by the British elite.”
“Hopeful and imaginative, sometimes polemical, and full of engaging facts. If you’ve been laboring under the impression that The Spirit Level is the beginning and end of the debate on inequality, this will be a useful corrective.”
