This book argues that inequality is not just about numbers, but is
also about lived, historical experience. It supplements economic
research and offers a comprehensive stocktaking of existing
thinking on global inequality and its historical development. The
book is interdisciplinary, drawing upon regional and national
perspectives from around the world while seeking to capture the
multidimensionality and multi-causality of global inequalities.
Grappling with what economics offers - as well as its blind spots -
the study focuses on some of today's most relevant and pressing
themes: discrimination and human rights, defences and critiques of
inequality in history, decolonization, international organizations,
gender theory, the history of quantification of inequality and the
history of economic thought. The historical case studies featured
respond to the need for wider historical research and to calls to
examine global inequality in a more holistic manner. The
Introduction 'Chapter 1 Histories of Global Inequality:
Introduction' is open access under a CC BY 4.0 license via
