The Divide
Global Inequality from Conquest to Free Markets
Jason Hickel
This thought-provoking book by Jason Hickel challenges the standard narrative surrounding poverty and inequality. Hickel argues that poverty is not simply a natural phenomenon, but a result of broader political forces at play. He proposes abolishing debt burdens in the global South, democratizing global governance, and rolling out an international minimum wage to bridge the divide between the rich and the poor. A must-read for anyone interested in global economic justice.

I implore you to read this book. It’s like opening your eyes after getting unplugged from the matrix. It’s bright and jarring at first, but you’ll want to know. – источник2021-05-19T15:50:46.000Z
China was the world's largest economy before 1850 and in 1800 had a standard of living on a par with Europe.
Maybe read some books about colonialism?
Mike Davis on Late Victorian Holocausts and Jason Hickel's 'The Divide' good places to start. – источник
