Focusing on the historical trajectory of economic inequality in America, the book delves into the significant reforms that addressed disparities during the Gilded Age and the 1920s, contrasting them with the resurgence of inequality since the 1970s. Paul Krugman explores the challenges faced by middle-class America and advocates for a transformative "new New Deal." This work serves as both a historical analysis of liberalism and a rallying cry for Americans to reclaim their economic future, making it a thought-provoking manifesto for contemporary readers.
