Résumé 0

Simone de Beauvoir’s philosophy enables a re-reading of Thomas Piketty’s 21st c. Capital. Piketty takes on inequality in the area of capital while forgetting the patrimonial inequalities between women and men. While he shows that capital and inheritance collapsed in the 20th c., I point out that this period corresponds to the rise in sexual equality. Simple coincidence? Now that inheritance is coming again to the fore, what will this do to sexual equality?
