The majority of the world’s people live in the Global South, a region covering
Africa, Asia, the Middle East, Latin America and the Pacific that is often called
the “Third World.” How was this region created and how has it been re-made
over time? What are its key features? How has it evolved over time? This course examines the creation, growth and evolution of the Global South with a stress on colonial legacies, economic development, social change and political assertion and non-alignment.
