CHRONICLES: ON OUR TROUBLED TIMES

Sinopsis de CHRONICLES: ON OUR TROUBLED TIMES

The return of the best-selling, award-winning economist extraordinaire. What can we do about inequality? How can we make the most of being in Europe? And how can we get the economy moving? Thomas Piketty's Capital in the Twenty-First Century was a critically acclaimed, prize-winning bestseller, with more than 1.5 million copies sold around the world. With the same powerful evidence and range of reference - and in columns of 700 words, rather than 700 pages - Chronicles answers these questions and more, setting out Thomas Piketty's thinking through his analysis of the financial crisis, what has happened since and where we should go from here. Tackling a wider range of subjects than in Capital, from Barack Obama to the migration crisis, it comprises the very best of his writing from the past ten years. Now, translated into English for the first time, it will bring much-needed clarity to our common future and further cement Piketty's reputation as the world's leading thinker today.
