About the Book

La desigualdad sin límites es el hecho económico más importante en la vida norteamericana actual. En 1970, la proporción salarial entre los 100 mejores directores ejecutivos y un trabajador promedio era de 45 a 1. ¡Hoy es un escandaloso 829 a 1! En ese momento, se estableció una nueva filosofía económica, basada en recortes a los impuestos, la desregularización financiera y la reducción al gasto público. Estas políticas pusieron en marcha un proceso que expandió enormemente el poder de los intereses financieros en acelerar la desigualdad. Pero, ¿exactamente cómo pasó eso?

Usando tablas y gráficas fáciles de entender, Desigualdad sin límites explica el proceso por el cual las corporaciones, una tras otra, se vuelven víctimas de la extracción sistemática de riqueza por parte de bancos, firmas privadas, y fondos de cobertura. Revela cómo esta mina a cielo abierto presiona negativamente los empleos, salarios, beneficios sociales y las condiciones laborales, mientras estimula el crecimiento de los ingresos de las élites financieras.

Pero, Desigualdad sin límites no solamente le da sentido a nuestros aprietos económicos. También muestra por qué todos los problemas clave que enfrentamos hoy en día -desde el cambio climático hasta la explosión de encarcelaciones en nuestro país- están íntimamente ligados a la aún creciente desigualdad económica.

Aún más importante, Desigualdad sin límites nos pide que construyamos un movimiento común que derribe las fuentes de la desigualdad de ingresos y económica. Que el autor aclare el problema, no hace que se cure por sí mismo. Hace falta enormes cantidades de energía y dedicación para traer de regreso la justicia económica a la sociedad norteamericana.

- Parte I: ¿Cuál es la causa fundamental de la desigualdad sin límites? ¿Qué es lo que ha hecho nuestra economía menos justa y ha dejado a la mayoría de nosotros con menos seguridad?

- Parte II: ¿Cómo es Estados Unidos realmente en comparación con otros grandes países desarrollados? ¿Cómo figuramos en comparaciones de calidad de vida, salud y bienestar?

- Parte III: ¿Qué tiene que ver la desigualdad económica con otros tantos problemas serios que tenemos, incluyendo los impuestos, la deuda, la educación, la justicia penal, el racismo, el cambio climático, el comercio exterior y las guerras?

- Parte IV: ¿Qué pasos concretos podemos tomar para empezar a crear una sociedad justa y equitativa?

Del libro:

"No existe nada en el universo económico que nos rescate automáticamente. No existe un péndulo, ni una fuerza política invisible, que 'naturalmente' oscile de nuevo hacia la justicia económica. Ni el cambio climático ni la discriminación racial se curarán por sí solos. Iniciaremos una batalla de gran escala por la justicia económica, social y ambiental, o seremos testigos de la deterioración continua del mundo que habitamos. El arco del capitalismo no se inclina hacia la justicia. Lo tenemos que doblar nosotros".


About the Author: Después de haberse graudado del Oberlin College y de la Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs de la Universidad de Princeton (MPA 1975), Les Leopold cofundó, y actualmente dirige, The Labor Institute (1976): una organización sin ánimo de lucro que diseña investigaciones y programas educativos sobre salud y seguridad laboral, el medioambiente y economía dirigidos a sindicatos, centros de trabajadores y organizaciones comunitarias. Además de Desigualdad sin límites, escribió How to Make a Million Dollars an Hour: Why Financial Elites get away with siphoning off America's Wealth (John Wiley and Sons, 2013), The Looting of America: How Wall Street's Game of Fantasy Finance destroyed our Jobs, Pensions and Prosperity, and What We Can Do About It (Chelsea Green Publishing, June 2009), y The Man Who Hated Work and Loved Labor: The Life and Times of Tony Mazzocchi (Chelsea Green Publishing, 2006).
