The rich have become richer, while the average household income has deteriorated and job quality has plummeted. Common explanations for these trends point to globalization, technology, or other forces largely beyond our control. But, as Jobs with Inequality shows, there is nothing inevitable about inequality. Rather, runaway inequality is the result of politics and policies - what governments have done to aid the rich and boost finance and what they have not done to uphold the interests of workers. Drawing on new tax and income data, John Peters tells the story of how inequality is unfolding in Canada today by examining post-democracy, financialization, and labour market deregulation. Timely and novel, Jobs with Inequality explains how and why business and government have rewritten the rules of the economy to the advantage of the few, and considers why progressive efforts to reverse these trends have so regularly run aground.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: CAItem Height: 235mmItem Length: 159mmItem Width: 32mmItem Weight: 780gGenre: Society & CultureTopic: Social Sciences, Science Nature & Math, Law & Politics, LGBTQ+, Gender Sex & RelationshipsAuthor: John PetersRelease Year: 2022 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
