      <p><b>A compelling explanation of how the law shapes the distribution of wealth</b><br><br>What is it that transforms a simple object, an idea, or a promise to pay into an asset that creates wealth? Katharina Pistor explains how, behind closed doors in the offices of private attorneys, capital is created—and why this little-known activity is one of the biggest reasons for the widening wealth gap between the holders of capital and everybody else. A powerful new way of thinking about one of the most pernicious problems of our time, <i>The Code of Capital</i> explores the various ways that debt, complex financial products, and other assets are selectively coded to protect and reproduce private wealth. This provocativ paints a troubling portrait of the pervasive global nature of the code, the people who shape it, and the governments that enforce it.</p>
