The Divide by Jason Hickel

A Brief Guide to Global Inequality and its Solutions

This compelling work delves into the stark economic disparities between the Global North and South, challenging the conventional narratives of development and progress. It argues that the wealth of richer nations has been built on the exploitation and impoverishment of poorer countries, perpetuated by a system of unfair trade, debt, and economic policies. The book calls for a radical rethinking of global economic structures, advocating for systemic change to address the root causes of inequality and to create a more equitable world.
