520 8  Trade disputes are usually understood as conflicts between
       countries with competing national interests, but as 
       Matthew C. Klein and Michael Pettis show in this book, 
       they are often the unexpected result of domestic political
       choices to serve the interests of the rich at the expense 
       of workers and ordinary retirees. Klein and Pettis trace 
       the origins of today's trade wars to decisions made by 
       politicians and business leaders in China, Europe, and the
       United States over the past thirty years. Across the world,
       the rich have prospered while workers can no longer afford
       to buy what they produce, have lost their jobs, or have 
       been forced into higher levels of debt. In this thought-
       provoking challenge to mainstream views, the authors 
       provide a cohesive narrative that shows how the class wars
       of rising inequality are a threat to the global economy 
       and international peace-and what we can do about it.
