Theme for Week of January 27, 2019: Income Inequality

I’m returning now to each of the seven antinomies in 7 Hard Problems, starting with #1: “Individual Wealth vs. Commonwealth”.

The aim is to flesh out the elements that were glossed over in the original vomitout, so I’m going to start in with income inequality, and then work my way over to class struggle.

Accordingly, I’ll be doing some reading and thinking this week on Thomas Piketty, Paul Goodman, and Anthony Giddens.

I’m not sure how far I’ll get this week, but hopeful I’ll break the back of these topics.

The aim now is to flesh out each antinomy until it’s more-or-less complete.
