its a topic i nominally understand but is honestly high fantasy to me whenever i try to understand it deeper and i think i need to read like a whole thing specifically dedicated to the concept to really for once wrap my head around it. ive seen a lot of debate on things like wages, super-exploitation, and currency differences that id really like to be able to settle in my head. thank you!

I liked Zak Cope's book 'Divided World, Divided Class' it was much more comprehensible to me. He writes in a more colloquial way than Amin. It's a great book if you're not doing intensive study.
