Inequality is not just a problem of poverty and the poor; it is as
much a problem of wealth and the wealthy. The provision of public
services is one area which is increasingly being reconfigured to
extract wealth upward to the 1%, notably through so-called Public
Private Partnerships (PPPs). The push for PPPs is not about
building infrastructure for the benefit of society but about
constructing new subsidies that benefit the already wealthy. In
other words, it is less about financing development than developing
finance. Understanding and exposing these processes is essential if
inequality is to be challenged. But equally important is the need
for critical reflection on how the wealthy are getting away with
it. What does the wealth gap suggest about the need for new forms
of organising by those who would resist elite power? -- .
