Economist Thomas Piketty: Coronavirus Pandemic Has Exposed the “Violence of Social Inequality”

As nearly 30 million Americans have filed for unemployment in just six weeks and millions worldwide face hunger and poverty, we look at the global economic catastrophe triggered by the pandemic and its impact on the most vulnerable. 
As the World Food Programme warns of a massive spike in global hunger and more than 100 million people in cities worldwide could fall into poverty, can this crisis be a catalyst for change? 
We ask French economist Thomas Piketty. His 2014 internationally best-selling book, “Capital in the Twenty-First Century,” looked at economic inequality and the necessity of wealth taxes. 
His new book, “Capital and Ideology,” has been described as a manifesto for political change. #DemocracyNow

This is more like it: THE IMPACT
"The epic successor to one of the most important books of the century: at once a retelling of global history, a scathing critique of contemporary politics, and a bold proposal for a new and fairer economic system. ... Google Books "
"Our economy, Piketty observes, is not a natural fact. 
Markets, profits, and capital are all historical constructs that depend on choices
. ... Piketty argues for a new “participatory” socialism, a system founded on an ideology of equalitysocial propertyeducation, and thesharing of knowledge and power."

Thomas Piketty Is Back With a 1,200-Page Guide to Abolishing Billionaires
"Thomas Piketty’s last blockbuster helped put inequality at the center of economic debates. Now he’s back with an even longer treatise that explains how governments should fix it –- by upending capitalism.
The French edition of “Capital and Ideology,’’ weighing in at 1,232 pages, comes out on Thursday
(English speakers will have to wait till next year for a translation)
It’s a sequel to “Capital in the 21st Century,’’ which has sold more than 2.5 million copies in 40 languages since 2013, according to its publisher.

What Alexander Calder Understood About Joy

Calder: The Conquest of Space: The Later Years: 1940–1976 BY JED PERL KNOP 

THIS ONE IS THE SECOND OF AN "exhaustive two-volume biography, Calder, which now concludes with The Conquest of Space: The Later Years: 1940–1976. 
(The Conquest of Time: The Early Years: 1898–1940 came out in 2017.) 
A contributing art critic for The New York Review of Books, Perl offers a sweeping dismissal of previous assessments of Calder, particularly those that emphasized the lighthearted and derivative dimensions of his work. “All the critics of Calder’s art, from the philistines to the intellectuals, missed the point,” he announces, a dose of hyperbole that might prompt some readers to ask just how clear-eyed this reverent guide can be about his subject . . "
"Perl situates Calder in the lineage of modern-art pioneers such as Auguste Rodin, Paul Cézanne, Constantin Brancusi, and Pablo Picasso, “who reconsidered what it meant to create life.” They weren’t, as Perl sees it, simply upending academic conventions and representational techniques. They were intent on transforming “the life of the work of art itself” and unlocking new sources of aesthetic vitality. “For Calder, this meant that the object had to take on a life of its own. Calder’s objects began to move.” A modern master, he enlisted science—in particular, physics—in the service of a spatial and kinetic leap forward in art. . ."
