The article you cite, Great Divergence, does seem to deal with the same topic as the publications you listed. The issue is this: The term "Great Divide" doesn't appear anywhere in the article Great Divergence. So the first thing to do is either: 1) Take up this issue at Talk:Great Divergence and find out if the two terms do, in fact, describe the same phenomenon, and, if so, find out if there is consensus to add "Great Divide" to the lede and/or the terminology section, or 2) be bold and just go ahead and add the information, properly referenced, of course. In the meantime, I suppose it wouldn't hurt to add Great Divergence to the See-also section here, so I'll do that.—ShelfSkewed Talk 15:51, 14 August 2022 (UTC)
