And those inequality regimes don’t come about by accident but by design. As for the why, Piketty argues that so-called inequality regimes-systems that embed a cycle of inequity-generally exist almost everywhere across the map and in the history books until, in some happy cases, they are swept aside. In Capital and Ideology, Piketty seeks to do a couple of things he didn’t in the previous book: better explain why and how inequality persists and why even more radical solutions are necessary to reverse the trend.
