The price of inequality
Title The price of inequality / Joseph E. Stiglitz Author Stiglitz, Joseph E., 1943- (Author) Publication London : Penguin Books, c2013 Scope lxiv, 523 s. ; 20 cm Country United Kingdom Language English Note Obsahuje bibliografii a rejstřík Annotation "The social impacts of inequality are now increasingly understood — higher crime, health problems and mental illness, lower educational achievements and life expectancy. But what are the causes of inequality, why is it growing so rapidly and what are its economic and political impacts? In this exceptional book Joseph Stiglitz gives the answers. He shows how, left to their own devices, markets are neither efficient nor stable and tend to accumulate money in the hands of the few rather than engender competition, producing slower growth and lower GDP. He also demonstrates how political institutions, far from countering these trends, often enhance them. Arguing that another world is possible, The Price of inequality provides a powerful, vital critique of free-market ideas."--Cover Výrazy tezauru Spojené státy * společensko-hospodářské poměry * sociální nerovnost * národní důchod * přerozdělování příjmů * 21. století Klasifikační znaky 2821 - Sociální rámec 1626 - Národní účty ISBN 978-0-718-19738-4 Copy count 1, currently available 1 Document kind Monografie
