Capital and Ideology (French: Capital et Idéologie)[1] is a 2019 book by French economist Thomas Piketty.[2] Capital and Ideology follows Piketty's 2013 book Capital in the Twenty-First Century, which focused on wealth and income inequality in Europe and the United States.
Described by Piketty as "in large part a sequel"[3] to its predecessor, Capital and Ideology has a wider scope, and Piketty has expressed his preference for the 2019 book.[4] In the book, Piketty outlines potential means of redistributing wealth, and explores historical and contemporary justifications for inequality.[5][6] Paul Krugman wrote of the book, "In Marxian dogma, a society's class structure is determined by underlying, impersonal forces, technology and the modes of production that technology dictates. Piketty, however, sees inequality as a social phenomenon, driven by human institutions. Institutional change, in turn, reflects the ideology that dominates society: "Inequality is neither economic nor technological; it is ideological and political."[7] Methods for redistributing wealth proposed in the book include the "inheritance for all", a payment distributed to citizens by their country at the age of 25.[5]
