Hosszú leírás:
In Crisis, Inequalities and Poverty, Schettino and Clementi provide an empirical and theoretical analysis of the economic breakdown that has characterised the last two decades of capitalist development ? from the Lehman collapse to the Covid-19 pandemic ? with a particular focus on the impact on poverty and inequality. The book provides a materialist account of the current global crisis of overproduction and looks at the link between capitalist crisis and systemic inequity, making the case through detailed quantification that the principal engine of these structural phenomena is in fact the general law of accumulation of the capitalist mode of production.

"The Authors have written a book that is pleasant o read and represents the fruit of years of scientific research already published in important journals, especially about the analysis of inequalities."

Stefano Lucarelli, in Review of Political Economy, Review of Political Economy



"Schettino and Clementi?s book shows in great detail that, in the capitalist system, the accumulation of capital goes hand in hand with the accumulation of poverty. This system, based on the indiscriminate exploitation of man and nature, today reveals all its contradictions, perhaps more than ever before."

Domenico Suppa, in SINAPPSI Journal, March 2023 SINAPPSI Journal
