While he believes there is no one ideal form of society, he is also insistent that inequalities can and should be reduced. Piketty believes it is impossible to understand and correctly analyze inequality if it’s considered in the abstract, ignoring the various particular economic, political, and social circumstances in which it occurs.
He presents a history of inegalitarianism from preindustrial times to the present in various parts of the world, discussing the forms this unfairness has taken and the defenses of it that have been made.
Piketty’s ( Capital in the Twenty-First Century, The Economics of Inequality) latest book is an ambitious attempt to analyze inequality and offer ways to reduce it.
