Book Synopsis Rentier Capitalism by : Brett Christophers
Download or read book Rentier Capitalism written by Brett Christophers and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2022-06-14 with total page 513 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How did Britain’s economy become a bastion of inequality? In this landmark book, the author of The New Enclosure provides a forensic examination and sweeping critique of early-twenty-first-century capitalism. Brett Christophers styles this as ‘rentier capitalism’, in which ownership of key types of scarce assets—such as land, intellectual property, natural resources, or digital platforms—is all-important and dominated by a few unfathomably wealthy companies and individuals: rentiers. If a small elite owns today’s economy, everybody else foots the bill. Nowhere is this divergence starker, Christophers shows, than in the United Kingdom, where the prototypical ills of rentier capitalism—vast inequalities combined with entrenched economic stagnation—are on full display and have led the country inexorably to the precipice of Brexit. With profound lessons for other countries subject to rentier dominance, Christophers’ examination of the UK case is indispensable to those wanting not just to understand this insidious economic phenomenon but to overcome it. Frequently invoked but never previously analysed and illuminated in all its depth and variety, rentier capitalism is here laid bare for the first time.
Download or read book Rated Agency written by Michel Feher and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2021-09-14 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The hegemony of finance compels a new orientation for everyone and everything: companies care more about the moods of their shareholders than about longstanding commercial success; governments subordinate citizen welfare to appeasing creditors; and individuals are concerned less with immediate income from labor than appreciation of their capital goods, skills, connections, and reputations. That firms, states, and people depend more on their ratings than on the product of their activities also changes how capitalism is resisted. For activists, the focus of grievances shifts from the extraction of profit to the conditions under which financial institutions allocate credit. While the exploitation of employees by their employers has hardly been curbed, the power of investors to select investees — to decide who and what is deemed creditworthy — has become a new site of social struggle. In clear and compelling prose, Michel Feher explains the extraordinary shift in conduct and orientation generated by financialization. Above all, he articulates the new political resistances and aspirations that investees draw from their rated agency.

Book Synopsis Share the Wealth by : Philippe Askenazy
Download or read book Share the Wealth written by Philippe Askenazy and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2021-01-12 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new perspective on the neoliberal world through the prism of rents and rentiers How can we reduce inequalities? How can we make work get better recognition and better pay? Philippe Askenazy in this new book shows that the current share of wealth is far from natural; it results from rising rents and their capture by the actors best endowed in the economic game. In this race for rents, the world of work is the big loser: while many workers feed capital rents by increased productivity and worsened working conditions, they are stigmatized as unproductive and their earnings stagnate. By proposing a new description of the capital-work relationship, calling for a remobilization of the world of work, and particularly poorly paid employees, Askenazy shows that there is a more radical alternative to neoliberalism beyond simply redistribution.

Book Synopsis Why the Rich Are a Problem by : Daniel Richard
Download or read book Why the Rich Are a Problem written by Daniel Richard and published by Max Milo. This book was released on 2023-07-04 with total page 79 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: • The rich have always existed because inequality is natural. • With hard work, anyone can become rich. • We criticize the rich out of jealousy. • The rich spend and invest. • The rich create jobs. • The rich take risks and innovate. • The more rich there are, the fewer poor there are. • The rich pay a lot of taxes. Philippe Richard, PhD in economics, analyzes some twenty preconceived ideas about the rich and social inequality. By precisely dissecting the economic data, the author provides factual evidence about the liberal doctrine and the excesses of our capitalism. The author also asks essential questions concerning the future of our society: • Is it a good thing that the fortune of a minority skyrockets, while the majority is in greater insecurity? • Do the rich represent an opportunity or a threat to the balance of our democracy? • Can our society survive with such inequalities? An excellent educational tool to put in everyone’s hands to understand why the rich are a problem. Philippe Richard has a doctorate in economics and has been a consultant to employee representatives for 20 years. He is the author of two published works: Abolishing the right to wealth, and For a fairer society: Manifesto for a cap on income and wealth.

Book Synopsis Social Class in Europe by : Etienne Penissat
Download or read book Social Class in Europe written by Etienne Penissat and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2020-05-12 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mapping the class divisions that run throughout Europe Over the last ten years - especially with the 'no' votes in the French and Dutch referendums in 2010, and the victory for Brexit in 2016 - the issue of Europe has been placed at the centre of major political conflicts. Each of these crises has revealed profound splits in society, which are represented in terms of an opposition between those countries on the losing and those on the winning sides of globalisation. Inequalities beyond those between nations are critically absent from the debate. Based on major European statistical surveys, the new research in this work presents a map of social classes inspired by Pierre Bourdieu's sociology. It reveals the common features of the working class, the intermediate class and the privileged class in Europe. National features combine with social inequalities, through an account of the social distance between specific groups in nations in the North and in the countries of the South and East of Europe. The book ends with a reflection on the conditions that would be required for the emergence of a Europe-wide social movement.
