About 'Schandalig rijk of ongelijk'

Astronomical inequalities are dividing our democracy and society. A small group of ultra-rich individuals are bathing in extreme luxury, while many others are struggling to make ends meet.

Scandalously rich or unequal examines the tension between excessive wealth accumulation and the functioning of our democracy. It depicts how we can live together in prosperity and justice.
