Divided: The Perils of Our Growing Inequality is a nonfiction anthology edited by David Cay Johnston, a Pulitzer Prize-winning investigative journalist known for his reporting on tax policy, corporate power, and economic regulation. The book gathers essays and commentary from a broad range of voices, including economists, journalists, activists, and political figures, to examine the widening gap between rich and poor in the United States. Its purpose is not simply to describe inequality, but to show how it affects core institutions such as education, health care, justice, mobility, and political representation. Published in the aftermath of the 2008 financial crisis, the collection argues that inequality is both a structural problem and a political choice, shaped by tax policy, regulation, and the influence of wealthy interests. Rather than offering a single thesis from one author, the anthology presents a multi-angle case for why extreme inequality matters and why ignoring it carries social and democratic costs.
