Globalisation and the North-South Relationship - IRPG855
Globalisation is one of the most overused and poorly understood of terms. For some it simply refers to a situation in which time, space and global inequalities have been broken down by the global market, creating a 'flat world'. Critics see the shifts that have taken place from the late 1970s as resulting in a widening of the disparities, especially across the African continent. Thus Africa is taken as the paradigm case of 'the South', although other countries that stand in relationships of dependency to the West or 'First World' will also be studied.
