KNYGA Saskia Sassen Expulsions

In "Expulsions," renowned sociologist Saskia Sassen delves into the pressing issues of our time, examining the complex dynamics of income inequality, displacement, and environmental degradation. Published by Harvard University Press in 2014, this thought-provoking hardback spans 304 pages and challenges conventional notions of poverty and injustice.

A must-read for anyone interested in social justice, economics, and environmental issues, "Expulsions" provides a compelling framework for understanding the interconnected challenges we face today.
