Capital e ideología en cómic
adaptación gráfica del bestseller de Thomas Piketty
Alet, Claire

(il.)
Where do inequalities come from and why do they persist? To answer these questions, renowned economist Thomas Piketty conducted painstaking historical research that culminated in his monumental Capital and ideology. Now, economic journalist Claire Alet and cartoonist Benjamin Adam bring the comic adaptation of Piketty's bestseller. In this graphic version tinged with humor, Alet and Adam have conceived a family saga in which the world history of inequalities takes the form of a small personal story. Jules, the main character, born at the end of the 19th century, embodies the rentier, a privileged figure in a hyper-unequal society where property is sacralized. He, his family, and his offspring will experience the evolution of wealth and social patterns. Eight generations follow one another, like a common thread throughout the different eras, until Léa, a young contemporary who will discover the family secret at the origin of her inheritance. With a pedagogical and didactic vocation, this graphic novel makes the analysis of the inequalities of Capital and ideology available to everyone.
