Politics, Not Economics, Ultimately Drives Inequality

Jon Wisman

Challenge, 2017, vol. 60, issue 4, 347-367

Abstract: Depicting economic inequality as a product of natural economic forces is the ideology that itself has led to greater inequality, argues the author. Ideology has had a part in rising inequality for centuries. Now it takes the form of a supposed “objective” science of economics. This is the challenge, writes the author, that those who seek more equal incomes now face.
