Description

The American Dream is facing a significant challenge. In The Privileges of Wealth, published by Routledge, the author examines how total household wealth increased by half over the last generation, yet only one fifth of American households captured this growth. This book explores the consequences of an economy where the dream of homeownership, secure retirement, and college education for children is becoming harder to reach for many. This work investigates the impact of rising wealth concentration and how the widening economic divide tracks along racial fault lines. Part of the Economics in the Real World series, this text provides a deep look into the systemic issues driving inequality. It is an essential read for those interested in sociology, anthropology, and the economic forces shaping modern society. Understand the reality of how wealth is distributed and what the growing racial divide means for the future of the American economy.
