Capital in the Twenty-First Century is a work of economic history and political economy by Thomas Piketty that investigates how wealth and income inequality evolve over very long periods. Drawing on data from France, Britain, the United States, and other countries, Piketty examines patterns of capital accumulation from the eighteenth century to the present and argues that inequality is not an accidental deviation from capitalism but one of its recurring outcomes. The book became widely discussed because it combines historical evidence, statistical analysis, and normative argument in a single account of modern capitalism. Its central purpose is to explain why wealth tends to concentrate, why the twentieth century was unusually equal by historical standards, and why inequality may rise again unless institutions respond. Rather than offering a narrow technical model, the book connects economics with history, taxation, democracy, education, and social structure.
