Inequality in a Context of Climate Crisis after COVID uses a
complex realist approach to examine the crisis of three
interconnected problems: economic inequality, climate change, and
the COVID-19 pandemic. Widely acknowledged as the key driver of
political discontent and social instability, economic inequality
across high and middle-income countries is profoundly
interconnected with climate change. Both of these issues are now
set within the particularly acute context of COVID-19 and its
aftermath. Confronting the crisis of these inherently interwoven
issues is now the major problem for all political and governance
systems. This book uses a complex realist frame of reference to
understand the character of
social-cultural-economic-political-ecological systems. It gives us
a vocabulary and modes of thinking to confront these societal
challenges and inform future action. Contributing to our thinking
about dynamic social systems, this text deploys complex realism to
understand our trajectory towards increasing inequality. It puts
complexity to work in addressing fundamental social issues in a
context of climate crisis after COVID-19. This book will be of
interest to students and scholars across the social sciences, in
particular to those studying social inequality, climate change,
heterodox economics, complex systems, and Master's students in
prgrammes with an applied focus. It will be of use to policymakers
and practitioners.
