Globalisation has brought unprecedented wealth and remarkable innovation and connectivity, yet it has failed to deliver the broad-based prosperity once promised. Instead, wealth has concentrated at the top, driving inequalities to levels unseen in modern history. These widening divides are reshaping politics, eroding trust, and weakening the very multilateral cooperation needed to confront global crises. At the heart of The Political Economy of Elitist Growth: A Proposition for a New Index on Inequalities is the Elitist Growth Index (EGI), a pioneering tool that quantifies elite control and its impact on democracy, justice, and sustainability. This is essential reading for policymakers, scholars, and citizens who want to understand-and challenge-the architecture of contemporary inequality.
