The Triumph of Injustice presents a forensic investigation into this dramatic transformation
written by two economists who have revolutionized the study of inequality. Blending history and
cutting-edge economic analysis Emmanuel Saez and Gabriel Zucman offer a comprehensive view of
America’s tax system alongside a visionary democratic and practical reinvention of taxes.
