It provides a new analysis of what generates inequalities in rights to income, property and public goods in contemporary societies. By critiquing Marx’s foundational theory of exploitation, it moves beyond Marx, both in its analysis of inequality, and in its concept of just distribution. It points to the major historical transformations that create educational and knowledge inequalities, inequalities in rights to public goods that combine with those to private wealth. It argues that asymmetries of economic power are inherently gendered and racialized, and that forms of coercion and slavery are deeply embedded in the histories of capitalism.This book is relevant to United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 10, Reduced inequalitiesCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBGenre: Law & PoliticsTopic: Business & Finance, Society & Culture, Social SciencesItem Width: 13mmItem Weight: 367gRelease Year: 2018 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
