Why political inequality is to blame for economic and social injustice


Political equality is the most basic tenet of democracy. Yet in America and other democratic nations, those with political power have special access to markets and public services. A Republic of Equals traces the massive income inequality observed in the United States and other rich democracies to politicized markets and avoidable gaps in opportunity—and explains why they are the root cause of what ails democracy today.


In this provocative book, economist Jonathan Rothwell draws on the latest empirical evidence from across the social sciences to demonstrate how rich democracies have allowed racial politics and the interests of those at the top to subordinate justice. He looks at the rise of nationalism in Europe and the United States, revealing how this trend overlaps with racial prejudice and is related to mounting frustration with a political status quo that thrives on income inequality and inefficient markets. But economic differences are by no means inevitable. Differences in group status by race and ethnicity are dynamic and have reversed themselves across continents and within countries. Inequalities persist between races in the United States because Black Americans are denied equal access to markets and public services. Meanwhile, elite professional associations carve out privileged market status for their members, leading to compensation in excess of their skills.


A Republic of Equals provides a bold new perspective on how to foster greater political and social equality, while moving societies closer to

Love this book!
Format: Paperback
I'm currently in a Bible study group regarding this book. It's a real eye opener! It's a wonderful reminder that God can change your heart. You learn something new with every unit. I also have the workbook and it makes you reflect and ponder the many works of Christ and the extreme importance to grow an intimate relationship with the son of God.

Can be life changing.
Format: Paperback
This book will challenge you and allow God to change your life if you acknowledge the truth, accept Christ dying on the cross for your sins and applying the truths that he presents. Along with staying in the Word. The contents of this book will help you to a God centered life, but only IF you want that, if you don’t, just pass it by. Nobody will force you to get it or their opinions on you.

BJU author...no thanks
Format: Paperback
The author is a teacher and on staff at Bob Jones University. That alone is enough for me to avoid this book knowing what BJU stands for, allows and teaches. Sanctification is a result of seeking Christ and emulating Him, not following what they deem to be godly rules and conduct. You change from the inside out, not outside in. BJU is known to be very legalistic, unfairly critical, beyond reasonably strict in appearances and is more concerned with outside appearances than inward growth.
