Through his books, such as "Taxing the Rich: A History of Fiscal Fairness in the United States and Europe" and "The Decline and Rise of Democracy: A Global History from Antiquity to Today," Stasavage examines how economic structures and political systems interact over time, influencing the rise and fall of democratic institutions.
