Introduction to Economic Inequality

Viac o knihe

Challenging conventional views on economic inequality, Eamonn Butler questions whether striving for equality is the right approach. He argues that disparities arise from individual abilities, choices, and luck, suggesting that addressing fundamental issues like education and social mobility is more crucial than income redistribution. By emphasizing the importance of access to a decent standard of living over equality itself, Butler presents a thought-provoking critique that encourages a shift in focus towards practical solutions for improving the lives of the poor.
