The ‘Global South’ and research on world politics

Sebastian Haug

The ‘Global South’ has become a popular meta category in the practice and study of world politics. Making use of its analytical potential, Sebastian Haug argues, requires an explicit engagement with definitions, meanings and the implications of taken-for-granted framings

Sebastian’s research focuses on the United Nations, international development politics and countries that do not fit with prominent binaries such as 'rich vs. poor' or 'North vs. South'.

Together with Jacqueline Braveboy-Wagner and Günther Maihold, Sebastian is co-editor of the Special Issue The ‘Global South’ in the study of world politics published by Third World Quarterly (Routledge/Taylor & Francis).
