About the book
Emmanuel Saez, an economist who won the Sveriges Riksbank Prize, and Gabriel Zucman investigate how the American tax system became an instrument of wealth concentration. The book dismantles myths about taxes and exposes how billionaires and corporations often pay less than ordinary citizens, legitimizing structural injustice.
With meticulous data and historical analysis, the authors show that inequality is not inevitable, but the result of deliberate political choices. An essential work for anyone interested in understanding the hidden mechanisms that perpetuate modern economic inequality.
