Thomas Piketty in conversation with Ricardo Ávila

Always capital

Colombia Digital 2021, 

The book Capital in the 21st Century by the French economist Thomas Piketty has been one of the most important works of economic theory and analysis in recent years. This popular and critical success has been translated into many different languages. In it, the author questions the relationship between equality and development, the role of the financial institutions that regulate the market and the historical share-out of wealth. Piketty will talk to Ricardo Ávila about his latest book, which is sure to be another landmark work, Capital and Ideology, a continuation of his analysis of the systems that govern our world.
