Assignment:

You have to read the paper "Beyond the North-South Divide: The Two Tales of World Poverty" by Jean-Philippe Thérien and write a 2 to 3-page summary (it is acceptable if your summary is longer than 3 pages). In your summary, you should include the critical analysis of the paper that discusses the key findings of the paper. In your review, answer to the following questions:

1. Why have the parameters of the North-South debate changed for many observers?

2. Describe how "ideological shifts" contributed to the marginalisation of North-South issues. What is the role of environmental politics in this scenario?

3. Describe how the Bretton Woods paradigm became the principal roadmaps informing the debate on international poverty. Your discussion should also include the roles IMF, the World Bank and GATT/WTO have played.

4. Describe how the UN paradigm became the principal roadmaps informing the debate on international poverty.

5. Describe the principal differences between the traditional North-South approach, the Bretton Woods paradigm, and the UN paradigm shown in Table 1.

Do NOT simply copy the text from the article in order to answer to the questions above - you have to write it in your own words.

The paper should be in Times New Roman, 12, double-spaced.
