The authors of this timely book, Who Gets What?, harness the
expertise from across the social sciences to show how skyrocketing
inequality and social dislocation are fracturing the stable
political identities and alliances of the postwar era across
advanced democracies. Drawing on extensive evidence from the United
States and Europe, with a focus especially on the United States,
the authors examine how economics and politics are closely
entwined. Chapters demonstrate how the new divisions that separate
people and places-and fragment political parties-hinder a fairer
distribution of resources and opportunities. They show how
employment, education, sex and gender, and race and ethnicity
affect the way people experience and interpret inequality and
economic anxieties. Populist politics have addressed these emerging
insecurities by deepening social and political divisions, rather
than promoting broad and inclusive policies.
