Review of Thomas Picketty

June 9, 2015

Thomas Piketty

For help with understanding and using a controversial economist.

“Back in 2001 two French economists, Thomas Piketty and Emmanuel Saez, circulated a seminal research paper (formally published two years later) titled “Income inequality in the United States, 1913-1998.”They used data from income tax receipts to do two things that you can’t do with standard data on the distribution of income, which come from household surveys. First, they gave us a portrait of the economic stratosphere — the incomes of the now-famous 1 percent. Second, they gave us historical depth, reaching all the way back to the late Gilded Age.”  https://www.nytimes.com/2015/08/03/books/review-the-economics-of-inequality-by-thomas-piketty.html
