The author argues that between 9 and 20% of families own around 70% of national wealth and that 52% of families own 5% or less. This suggests that wealth concentration is more extreme than previously thought. The author draws on historical data and case studies to show how land, labor, and capital combine to produce economic growth. However, he argues that these factors alone cannot explain why some societies prosper while others stagnate. He proposes that a fourth factor, the economic state, is also essential. The economic state, which includes industrial organization and political institutions, plays a crucial role in promoting cooperation, division of labor, exchange, and distribution. The author concludes that understanding the role of the economic state is essential for developing effective policies to address wealth inequality and promote economic progress.
