Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book re-examines and analyzes the history of inequality in the US over several centuries, and its continued relevance in modern life. The author argues that rather than considering inequality as a static phenomenon with a single cause, it instead takes many forms that have varied over time, being shaped by successive technological, economic and political changes. The author approaches the subject through an extensive historical sweep, arguing that understanding present-day inequality requires us to see how it developed through previous centuries. Their analysis draws upon examples from across US history to examine the mechanisms that have created and sustained economic, political and social inequality. This book is an ambitious and wide-ranging account of inequality in the United States, offering a fresh perspective on its history and causes.
