About this listen

Since the early days of the American republic, political thinkers have maintained that a grossly unequal division of property, wealth and power would lead to the erosion of democratic life. Yet over the past 35 years, neoconservatives and neoliberals alike have redrawn the tenets of American liberalism. Nowhere is this more evident than in our current mainstream political discourse, in which the politics of economic inequality are rarely discussed.©2008 Columbia University Press (P)2008 Columbia University Press Economic History Macroeconomics Political Science Poverty & Homelessness United States Economic disparity Economic inequality Social Policy
