Stiglitz identifies the true sources of wealth and improved quality of life, based on studies and advances in science and technology.

Entire economic sectors are concentrated in the hands of a few companies, contributing to soaring inequality and slow economic growth. This is what has allowed the financial industry to legislate its own regulations, technology companies to accumulate vast amounts of confidential customer data with little or no hindrance, and governments to negotiate trade agreements without any interest in workers' well-being. Many have made their fortunes by exploiting others rather than creating wealth. If something isn't done, new technologies could make the situation even worse, worsening inequality and unemployment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003e\"Describing the trajectory taken by the economy and society is not enough. We need to better understand the power of the ideas and interests that have led us so far astray over the past four decades, why they appeal to so many people, and why they are so fundamentally flawed. Allowing the economic and political agenda to be set by corporate interests has led to the greatest concentration of economic and political power, and it will continue to do so. Understanding why our economic and political systems have failed is the first step toward demonstrating how another world is possible.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cem\u003ePeople, Power, and Profit\u003c\/em\u003e proves that we must harness the benefits of markets and curb their excesses, ensuring that markets work for us, not the other way around. If citizens commit to an agenda of change, it may not be too late to create a progressive capitalism capable of rebuilding shared prosperity.\u003c\/p\u003e \"","brand":"Totvsrj-record-dc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47159418421500,"sku":"9788501119216","price":89.9,"currency_code":"BRL","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0722\/9197\/5420\/files\/fef394daf470857b517592d630a60fd4_b6fd8dd0-f404-44bb-8243-4f35e2cd76b4.jpg?v=1778326049"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.record.com.br\/en\/collections\/joseph-e-stiglitz.oembed","provider":"Editora Record","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
