Who wants to read Thomas Picketty "Capital and Ideology"

Grre June 18, 2020 at 14:28 3325 views 3 comments
At the beginning of the COVID crisis I picked up Thomas Picketty's newest book Capital and Ideology but of course, I got busy with other projects and personal issues. My goal now is to start reading it in the next few days, and although I know it is a big book, I was wondering if anyone else wants to/is currently reading it and would like to discuss?

I read Capital in the 21st Century over the summer, and it was good. I would have totally read this with you if I'd known about this forum several months ago.

Well good news for you, I actually only read a chapter or so of it before I ended up getting a job which took the rest of my time. I'm open to continuing it at some point, if you or anyone are still interested ... Capital in the 21st Century was one of the first political/economic philosophy books I ever read (at about 16) and it struck me.
