This book arose out of a friendship between a political philosopher
and an economic sociologist, and their recognition of an urgent
political need to address the extreme inequalities of wealth and
power in contemporary societies. It provides a new analysis of what
generates inequalities in rights to income, property and public
goods in contemporary societies. By critiquing Marx's foundational
theory of exploitation, it moves beyond Marx, both in its analysis
of inequality, and in its concept of just distribution. It points
to the major historical transformations that create educational and
knowledge inequalities, inequalities in rights to public goods that
combine with those to private wealth. It argues that asymmetries of
economic power are inherently gendered and racialized, and that
forms of coercion and slavery are deeply embedded in the histories
of capitalism. This book is relevant to United Nations Sustainable
Development Goal 10, Reduced inequalities -- .
