Read the paragraph and answer the following questions:
The vast political, economic, and social differences separating North and South indicate that the Global South is “weak, vulnerable, and insecure – with these traits being the function of both domestic and external factors”.
Coping with this insecurity has long been a primary foreign policy goal of Global South states, and efforts to overcome it have often brought the Global South into contention with the Global North. Ironically, the end of the Cold War reduced the great powers’ security interest in providing economic aid to Global South countries. With foreign assistance declining, the Global South is now experiencing new armed conflicts and economic vulnerabilities.
Given these problems, strategies to maximize security and prosperity preoccupy foreign policy thinking in the Global south. Different states have taken different approaches, however.
