Beschreibung

Wealth By Birth explores the significant yet often unseen impacts of inherited wealth on individuals and society. It argues that inherited wealth isn't just financial; it's a system of advantages affecting access to education, social networks, and opportunities. The book traces the evolution of inheritance laws and wealth accumulation, revealing how legal frameworks have historically shaped wealth distribution. For example, systems like primogeniture concentrated wealth, while others promoted broader distribution. The book investigates how inherited wealth translates into tangible advantages, like access to elite schools and valuable social connections, which compound over time. This perpetuates cycles of wealth and privilege, impacting social mobility and economic opportunity. Examining economic history and utilizing data analysis, the book offers a unique perspective by focusing on the systemic nature of inherited advantage, rather than individual cases. Structured to provide a comprehensive overview, Wealth By Birth begins by defining key concepts and then delves into the historical roots of wealth accumulation, legal frameworks, and the impact on education and careers. It concludes by proposing policy interventions to mitigate wealth inequality. With its accessible tone and blend of historical analysis and economic insight, the book is a valuable resource for anyone seeking to understand the dynamics of inequality.

Moving with ease between different sociopolitical and socioeconomic discourses, this collection of Ooi Kee Beng’s columns and commentaries — published between 2019 and 2023 — showcases more than ever his talent as a historian and philosopher, alongside his prowess as a political scientist.

    Despite his much-hyped culpability, Steven Paul Jobs was not devoid of creative vision. It was his sheer aptitude to foresee the future in the perspective of things that contemporaries even did not guess, that had transformed Apple from the darkest corner of a garage to the pinnacle of commercial glory.  
    It is also quite paradoxical that when the maiden iPhone was launched to the inquisitive sight of the larger audience, Steve Jobs was even himself skeptical about the supreme success of the gadget he had brought about. 
    The spur of technological evolution in itself is not intuitively decent or dreadful. The cause of concern is the basic human adaptability with fast-paced technological growth. Saving an exceptional calamitous incident in the offing, the super-fast journey of technological furtherance will proceed to the infinity.  
    In the realm of this reality, the modern rationalist human outlook is gradually disappearing from the philosophical scene of technological affinity, that was originally addressed to serve mankind.  
    This is what the relevant author and computer science faculty at Georgetown University, California viz., Calvin C. Newport speaks about in his much talked about book, Digital Minimalism: Choosing a Focused Life in a Noisy World.
