Evaluating Global Theories of Inequality

Occupy Wall Street

Occupy Wall Street

Protestors at Occupy Wall Street adhere to the position that income inequality is a detriment to society. By protesting the financial institutions that provide capital to economic enterprises, "occupiers" suggest that the market-driven approach to inequality, embraced by financiers, has not resulted in a fair and equitable economic order.
