Sixty-two people own as much as half of humanity

The book La Mondialisation malheureuse points out the extreme concentration of global wealth in the hands of a very small number. The work thus refers to a group of 62 people whose combined fortune is equivalent to that of the 3.5 billion poorest human beings. This observation was notably highlighted by the literary columnist Juliette Arnaud during a review of Thomas Guénolé's essay on France Inter.
