Document Summary
Defining the global south: real and imagined dividing lines. Today: rich and poor nations fall on either side of brandt"s line. Students often taught about problems in the global south and how to fix them leading to stereotype reinforcements that the south needs to intervention from the north and is a collection of trouble and problems. Focus of the book is to be geographical rather than development experts. In this book, the working def. of the global south stays with the problematic division put forward by. Brandt, but we use this deliberately to highlight the diversity that exists south of the brandt line rather than trying to present a singular view of the experiences of its countries, regions and peoples. Within the brandt commission"s south today are emerging superpowers and failed states, the world"s fastest growing economies and the vast majority of the global poor.
