The document discusses the global divides between the Global North and Global South. It defines the Global North as developed countries in Europe and North America that make up 1/4 of the population but have 4/5 of the world's income. The Global South refers to developing countries in Africa, Asia, Latin America that make up 3/4 of the population but only 1/5 of the world's income and tend to have higher poverty, conflict, and less political stability. It notes measures have been taken through globalization and UN programs to try to narrow the socioeconomic gaps between the two regions.
On the great disparity between the Global North and South Today. It also presents two schools of thought on the causes of disparity i.e., Classical Liberal Economic Theory and Dependency Theory.

Globalization represents an unavoidable phenomenon in the history of mankind, which is making the world smaller and smaller by increasing the exchange of goods, services, information, knowledge and cultures between different countries, therefore, it is very important to understand the "why, where, what and how" of our current situation.
In this module, you will journey to the very heart of this course: you will be asked to identify the challenges posed by globalization and consider responses to these challenges as demonstrated by experiences on the ground. For this purpose, students will produce case studies of communities (in the Philippines and other countries) experiencing the impact of globalization and their respective responses to issues that arise. There are global-civic societies engaged in advocacies relating to climate and environmental protection, for example, human trafficking across borders, the application of advances in science and technology to serve some of the world’s poorest communities, and so on. There are, too, communities that have managed, in varying degrees of success, to deal with the effects, good and bad, of globalization.

Global education and current trends from social abstract for the paperAmarwaha
The last century intense with a dream and aspirations and major social experiments has ended with general collapse of initiative for social transformation and total disillusionment with efforts of ‘development’ of the so called ‘developing’ nations. The so called victorious ideology-capitalism- has sought to consolidate its triumph with a call for ‘globalization’ for freeing of market, for unchecked hunting by private capital within and across nations with total disregard for the sovereignty rights of nations across the world. Globalization did not develop evenly: indeed, it was accompanied by inequality and conflict. The global development of economic and social relations has been paralleled by wide disparities between North and South.
The globalization paradox in the 21st century and its applicability in the an...Armend Muja
During the last three decades (1980-2010) there has been an intensification of international economic exchange both in volume, regions and people involved. The scale and depth of economic integration has raised concerns among scholars that these developments are reminiscent of the era of pre-Great Depression liberalization. Critics of globalization point out that the removal of trade barriers and capital controls would tilt the balance of power towards capital holders and richer economies. Arguably, this undermines state sovereignty, democracy and internal stability. A growing number of scholars have dismissed those concerns pointing out the net benefits of trade and globalization and reduction of world poverty. The paper finds that concerns of the demise of the nation state due to increased economic globalization are exaggerated. Increased liberalization has only served to strengthen the role of governments. However, the net gains from increased economic exchange have not been equally shared domestically nor across trading regions. Countries that have embraced globalization but maintained their breaks over its downsides have made most gains.
In US presidential elections are confronted Hillary Clinton who defends globalization and maintaining the balance of power between the great powers in the international and Donald Trump who opposes globalization and seeks recovery of world hegemony by the United States. Donald Trump, which is a reaction aimed at reversing the global decline of the United States shows political behavior marked by obsessive preoccupation against the economic decline, humiliation and victimization of the country and the defense of compensatory cult of national unity and power, in which seek through the redemptive violence and without ethical controls or legal objectives of external expansion. The Trump action could lead to the risk of international instability and hence world conflagration.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

4. The Brandt Report (1983) was published by
a commission chaired by the former German
Chancellor Willy Brandt. The report identified:
2. THE SOUTH – is a
geographical convenience
based on the fact that
most of the Poor World lies
south of latitude 30 degree
North. (Except Australia
and New Zealand).
1.THE NORTH –
are those countries
that are above the
South 30 degree
North.

6. The Global North (comprises one quarter of the
world population) refers to developed societies of
Europe and North America, which are characterised
by established democracy, wealth, technological
advancement, political stability, aging population,
zero population growth and dominance of world
trade and politics.
7. The Global South (are the developing countries)
(comprises three quarters of the world population)
represents mainly agrarian economies in Africa,
India, China, Latin America and others that are not
as economically sound and politically stable as their
global North counterparts and tend to be
characterised by turmoil, war, conflict, poverty,
anarchy and tyranny (Odeh, 2010).
9. The terms the North and the South, when
used in a global context, are alternative
designations for “developed” and “developing”
countries.
The North–South divide is broadly considered a
socio-economic and political divide.
The Global North refers to the First World
Countries or Developed Countries.
The Global South refers to the Third World
Countries or the Developing Countries.
10. Characteristics of the North Characteristics of the South
1/4 of the world's people 3/4 of the world's people
4/5 of world's income 1/5 of world's income
Average life expectancy more than 70 years Average life expectancy of 50 years
Most people have enough to eat 1/5 or more suffer from hunger and malnutrition
Most people are educated 1/2 of the people have little chance of any education
Over 90% of the world's manufacturing industry less than 10% of the world's manufacturing industry
About 96% of the world's spending on research and
development
4% of the world's research and development

12. The globalized world faces two
contradictory trends. While a
globalized market opens the
prospects of unimagined wealth, it
also creates new vulnerabilities to
political turmoil and the danger of a
new gap.
13. The impact of these new trends on the
developing world is profound.
In economies driven by a near imperative
for the big to acquire the small,
companies of developing countries are
increasingly being absorbed by American
and European multinationals.
14. While this solves the problem of
access to capital, it brings about
growing vulnerabilities to domestic
political tensions, especially in times of
crisis. And within the developing
countries, it creates political
temptations for attacks on the entire
system of globalization.
15. The typical developing country’s economy
bifurcates: one set of enterprises is
integrated into the global economy,
mostly owned by international
corporations.
The rest, cut off from globalization, employs
much of the labor force at the lowest wages
and with the bleakest social prospects. In

17. The North-South Divide is criticized for being a
way of segregating people along economic
lines and is seen as a factor of the widening
gap between developed and developing
economies.
However, several measures have been put in
place to contract the North-South Divide
including the lobbying for international free
trade and globalization.
18. The United Nations has developed a
program dedicated to narrowing the
divide through its Millennium
Development Goals.
This includes improving education and
health care, promoting gender equality,
and ensuring environmental
sustainability.
Editor's Notes
The origin of dividing countries into the North-South Divide arose during the Cold War of the mid 20th century.
During this time, countries were primarily categorized according to their alignment between the Russian East and the American West.
Countries in the East like the Soviet Union and China which became classified as Second World countries.
In the west, the United States and its allies were labelled as First World countries.
This division left out many countries which were poorer than the First World and Second World countries.
The poor countries were eventually labeled as Third World countries.
This categorization was later abandoned after the Second World countries joined the First World countries.
New criteria was established to categorize countries which was named the North-South Divide where First World countries were known as the North while Third World countries comprised the South.
Let’s have a simple analogy in order to understand easily the North-South Divide. Look at these pictures.
The cheetah is the fastest animal on earth, whereas the snail is the slowest animal on earth.
The cheetah represents the Global North because its strength, speed and might and being the fastest.
And the snail represents the Global South because it’s very slow in progress and development.
That is the primary distinction between the two.
Now, let us go deeper as to how and when the Global North and Global South division started?
To fully understand, let’s check on the next picture.
The Brandt Line was developed as a way of showing how the world was geographically split into relatively richer and poorer nations.
Richer countries are almost all located in the Northern Hemisphere, Poorer countries are mostly located in tropical regions and in the Southern Hemisphere.
The North-South Divide is clearly a socio-economic and political categorization of countries.
The Cold-War-era generalization places countries in two distinct groups; The North and the South.
The North is comprised of all First World countries and most Second World countries while the South is comprised of Third World countries.
This categorization ignores the geographic position of countries with some countries in the southern hemisphere such as Australia and New Zealand being labeled as part of the North.
Hence in the NORTH:
Less population
High Wealth
High Standard of living
High Industrial development
More of industry
While in SOUTH:
Large population
Low Wealth
Low Standard of living
Low Industrial development
