The Global Justice Project, an initiative by Economist Thomas Picketty and the World Inequality Lab presents a comprehensive framework for achieving socio-economic equality while respecting environmental limits. This ambitious (even by my standards) long-term vision outlines a strategic path from 2026 to 2100 that prioritizes human development and planetary sustainability.

The project proposes a Global Justice Fund and a new international democratic order to facilitate this transition. By focusing on political strategies and citizen movements, the report seeks to rebuild majorities dedicated to social justice. Pretty mind-boggling: an integrated roadmap for balancing global prosperity with the long-term habitability of Earth.
