Rated The Divide: A Brief Guide to Global Inequality and its Solutions 8/10

A must read for, well, anyone. Hickel provides us with an alternative to the story we are told in the West about (international) politics, economy and development. He challenges the status quo by giving a different account of how the world developed the last few centuries. However, I do feel that Hickel blames the Western 'developed' countries and institutions for all misery in the world, painting a rather bleak black-white image of the way things are.
