in the early fourteenth century, the average Cairene might consume a modest 1,154 calories per day, including 45.6 grams of protein and 20 grams of fat, but by the mid-fifteenth century was able to dispose of 1,930 calories, including 82 grams of protein and 45 grams of fat.

关于不平等,作者提出一系列尖锐的问题。并且结合大量历史数据来表明自己的观点,同时也提出一些缓解不平等的可能性。
乞讨、行骗和盗窃有助于获得更为平等的资源分配。对独裁主义行为及其扩张的制裁方式包括谣言、批评、奚落、违抗、放逐,甚至包含谋杀在内的身体暴力。

更为安全的产权和国家承诺加强了对世袭私人财富的保护。千年来,文明社会并没有让自己适应和平的平等化进程。对于广泛的社会范围和不同的发展水平,稳定都会助长经济不平等。暴力性冲击对破坏既定秩序,压缩收入和财富的分布,缩小贫富差距都是至关重要的。在整个有记载的历史进程中,最有力的矫正作用总是由最有力的冲击引起的。4种不同类型的暴力冲击缓和了不平等:大规模动员战争、变革性的革命、国家衰败和致命传染病。我将这些称为矫正力量的四骑士。等到尘埃落定的时候,富人和穷人之间的差距缩小了,有时甚至急剧缩小了。

历史上只有大规模战争、国家崩溃和大规模瘟疫才会带来大规模平均财富的效果。
社会财富的平等性是一把双刃剑,过度的不平等会激发社会矛盾,过度的平等又会消磨社会进步的动力。但真的站在上帝视角研究人类历史上的不平等性和各个历史周期内的重大事件的关联,总的来说,好TMD乏味啊。
