{"product_id":"not-paying-the-rent-neil-wilcock-9783030788636","title":"Not Paying the Rent: Imagining a Fairer Capitalism","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis is a conversational book with chapters directly followed by responses from experts. The main authors propose that the failure in development is not due to capitalism but rather rentism, which is earnings based on political rather market returns. Rent prevents development and ingrains social and economic inequalities. Using the case study of Brazil's economic development, it is shown how development fails because policies Brazil and other low to middle-income countries promote do not overcome the main obstacle to development - rent. The overcoming of rent would occur within a model of globalisation whereby the advanced economics still prosper concurrently as the poorest countries grow, all underpinned by international organisations defending a rule-based globalisation. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eNot Paying the Rent: Imagining a Fairer Capitalism\u003c\/i\u003e presents a new application of the theory of rent, both historically in the case of Brazil, and in practical terms in tackling it through modern international organisations. It will be relevant to students, researchers, and general readers interested in inequality and development economics.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Neil Wilcock\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3030788636\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783030788636\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Palgrave MacMillan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/22\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 192\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.65lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.27h x 5.83w x 0.51d","brand":"Neil Wilcock","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44072368570623,"sku":"9783030788636","price":159.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_73afa39d-99b4-46ef-90c2-cec0a077ebb4.jpg?v=1685441543","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/not-paying-the-rent-neil-wilcock-9783030788636","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
