George Monbiot endorses the Greens and cites Piketty.http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2014/jul/29/rich-wealth-good-inequality-green-partyPiketty's own self scepticism about his solutions is simply brushed aside as a mere technicality
Socialism as an alternative?? …er…umm…Piketty has given new life to every reformist out there. Capitalism can now be re-born. He has done a "Keynes" on socialism and temporarily set back any progress as people now begin to struggle futilely for tax reform. Some say (well Lbird would and me) that was indeed his purpose and motivation and intention because of his own ideological political position and it has not been an unintentional consequence of his "neutrality" as a "scientific" researcher.
