Om avsnittet

Sedan finanskrisen 2008 har glappet mellan fattiga och rika ökat stort på många håll och klyftorna fortsätter att växa. Allt fler ställer sig frågan: hur mycket ojämlikhet kan ett samhälle tåla? Hur håller ett land ihop när vissa har nästan allt och andra ingenting? Vad kan vi lära oss av babianerna? Och vad har ditt pizzabud med saken att göra? P3 Dystopia tar sig an det som kallats för vår tids mest centrala problem: den ekonomiska ojämlikheten.
