, SECTION A: HISTORY OF EDUCATION
QUESTION 1
1.1
The phrases "Global North" and "Global South" refer to a political and socioeconomic
split that highlights the historical and current disparities between affluent, industrialized
nations (the Global North) and less developed, poorer areas (the Global South). This
split is not merely geographical; rather, it is a sign of more generalized power
discrepancies across the globe that have been moulded by economic inequality and
colonial pasts.
Typically, countries like the United States, Canada, Western European states, and
portions of East Asia are included in the Global North. Industrialization and colonial
exploitation have traditionally benefited these areas, raising living standards,
bolstering economies, and exerting considerable political influence on the international
scene. Additionally, these nations have shaped international organizations and policy
in a major way.
On the other hand, areas of Africa, Latin America, Asia, and Oceania are included in
the Global South. These regions frequently experienced colonization, resource
exploitation, and population marginalization. Because of this, many nations in the
Global South continue to struggle with issues including poverty, underdevelopment,
and restricted access to international markets. Ideologies from the Global North
frequently dominate academic and policy conversations, while the opinions and
contributions of the Global South are routinely underrepresented in global research
and scholarly publications (Wolhuter, 2020).
The Global North and South are clearly divided in a number of areas, such as politics,
economics, culture, and education. One way that this can limit the contribution of
Global South researchers to global knowledge and reinforce existing inequalities is
through the dominance of Global North scholars in academic publications, which can
maintain a biased picture of realities in the Global South.
