Deaths of Despair and the Future of Capitalism

Anne Case and Angus Deaton

#2913 of 3,809 books · #54 in Business & Economics

Shortlisted for the Financial Times and Standard Chartered Business Book of the Year Award (2020).

While the rise in premature deaths among American working-class whites has become a national crisis, the authors tie the problem to the weakening position of labor, the growing power of corporations, and to a health-care sector that redistributes working-class wages to the wealthy.
