In The Captured Economy, Brink Lindsey and Steven M. Teles identify a new culprit for increasing inequality: the government-corporate sector nexus. They explain how wealthy special interest groups have captured the governmental regulatory process, and why the perverted form of governance that this alliance has created subverts the goals of egalitarian-minded policymakers. They also offer feasible policy solutions that can help correct the problem.
