Today we’re publishing the fourth and final installment in our four part series on the growth of income and wealth inequality in the United States. Brad DeLong looks at the decline of North Atlantic social democracy through the prism of the debate over Thomas Piketty’s hugely influential Capital in the Twenty-First Century. It is another must-read. And I want to thank everyone involved in putting together this series as well as series sponsor AFSCME for making it possible to put something together on this scale.
If you’ve missed the earlier installments you can see them here, starting with my editor’s note on the series.
