In As Gods Among Men, Guido Alfani examines the history of the rich in the West from the Middle Ages to modern times, including paths to wealth, societal perceptions and their resilience against shocks. Contributing to a recent surge in research studying inequalities, Alfani provides a nuanced economic history that probes conventional understandings of how great wealth has been accumulated, writes Noah Sutter. As Gods Among Men: A History of the Rich in the West. Guido Alfani. Princeton University Press. 2024.
