Ezra Klein Book Recommendations & Book Mentions

Ezra Klein

Piketty thinks that we can have much more radical policies than most economists or politicians buy into ... He’s really putting forward solutions proportionate to the size of the inequality problem. ... it’s bracing stuff to read.

I really loved it. I really recommend people listening pick it up. There’s so much beyond what you heard here. Thank you very much.

Allen’s vision is something called power-sharing liberalism. To her, one mistake liberalism has made has been that it is willing, again and again, to deprioritize political equality in favor of material redistribution.

An incredibly timely book…The world got a hell of a lot lonelier right after he published that. At any rate, he’s got an extraordinarily hard job here. But so do we all, actually.

It’s a book I hope future governments and current governments will absorb…One thing she really does is tell clearly the stories and tell clearly the lessons she has seen and learned about why things go wrong even when the people involved are trying to make them go right.

I recommend this book to everybody. I think it is the single best book on what Israel is because it is a book that is better able than any other to hold both the idealism and violence at its heart, to take seriously both the way it was a miracle for some and a tragedy for others.

Bit of an odd column for me, but built around two books that were electric to read in this moment, and I strongly recommend: Matthew Rose's "A World After Liberalism" and @yermolenko_v's "Ukraine in Histories and Stories." https://t.co/15sWcPaU1h

Most books that have the word “neoliberalism” in the title are not worth reading. This one is.
