The Price of Inequality

Book • 2012
In 'The Price of Inequality', Joseph Stiglitz argues that economic inequality in the U.S.

is not only morally wrong but also detrimental to economic productivity.

He contends that political power wielded by the wealthy has shaped markets to their advantage, leading to a self-perpetuating cycle of inequality.

Stiglitz offers a vision for a more equitable society through policy reforms.
