The Great Divide

Inequality is not inevitable. It is a choice, and we can choose differently.

In The Great Divide, Nobel laureate Joseph Stiglitz explores the widening gap between the rich and the rest of society, uncovering the economic, political, and social forces that drive inequality. Drawing on decades of research and real-world data, he demonstrates how policies, market structures, and systemic biases favor the wealthy while undermining opportunity for the majority. Stiglitz argues that understanding the mechanisms of inequality is the first step toward meaningful reform.

The book examines tax policy, education, healthcare, and labor markets, showing how entrenched advantages perpetuate wealth concentration. Stiglitz not only diagnoses the problems but offers practical strategies to create a more equitable society, emphasizing that economic prosperity and fairness are mutually reinforcing rather than contradictory.

Insightful, rigorous, and solution-oriented, The Great Divide challenges readers to confront uncomfortable truths about wealth, power, and policy. It is essential reading for anyone seeking to understand the roots of inequality and the pathways to a more just and prosperous society.
