One of the world’s leading economists of inequality, Branko Milanovic presents a bold new account of the dynamics that drive inequality on a global scale. Drawing on vast data sets and cutting-edge research, he explains the benign and malign forces that make inequality rise and fall within and among nations. He also reveals who has been helped the most by globalization, who has been held back, and what policies might tilt the balance toward economic justice.
Global Inequality takes us back hundreds of years, and as far around the world as data allow, to show that inequality moves in cycles, fueled by war and disease, technological disruption, access to education, and redistribution. The recent surge of inequality in the West has been driven by the revolution in technology, just as the Industrial Revolution drove inequality 150 years ago. But even as inequality has soared within nations, it has fallen dramatically among nations, as middle-class incomes in China and India have drawn closer to the stagnating incomes of the middle classes in the developed world. A more open migration policy would reduce global inequality even further.
Both American and Chinese inequality seems well entrenched and self-reproducing, though it is difficult to predict if current trends will be derailed by emerging plutocracy, populism, or war. For those who want to understand how we got where we are, where we may be heading, and what policies might help reverse that course, Milanovic’s compelling explanation is the ideal place to start.
Branko Milanovic is Senior Scholar at the Luxembourg Income Study Center, and Visiting Presidential Professor, Graduate Center, City University of New York.
泛泛读了一下,感觉对我而言并没有多少新东西。
评分总体结论不怎么controversial,对于把一些比较松散的个人印象串联起来算是有帮助。作为经济学家来说对数据的分析、解读尤其是对其局限性的认知以及对相关的社会政治背景的讨论算是相当不错了,可惜还是有点泛泛而谈。
评分非常非常有力的著作。个人以为如果去掉《21世纪资本论》里一些过分华丽的辞藻和理论装饰,硬货(尤其是对测量不平等方法的讨论)、思维深度和长时段历史背景的注意力均比不上此书。
评分罗列事实和数据还行,分析一泡污。“Kuznet waves”这个说法有点意思,但也很空洞,其他部分很糟糕,Piketty有的毛病(除了啰嗦)它都有。尤其假装做政治经济学分析的时候,引的文献都什么玩意儿。谈到中国政治那里更是笑掉大牙了。

本书是2016年经济学人的年度最佳图书之一,如果对全球化和不平等感兴趣的话,这是一本不应该错过的书。我看了Milanović的很多论文,不得不说他在这个领域有相当多的开创性研究,这本书算是他对自己研究的一个总结。比起大红大紫的皮凯蒂和他的《21世纪资本论》,这本书没有...
