{{li|start=y|I=S1/LR|Q=618|Q2=618}}Global North / Global South classification system -> I have never liked this because it doesn't make any material sense to me. it feels more like an arbitrary "dominant narrative" than anything else I've ever seen.
{{li|I=S1/LR/PT|Q=618}}Global North

{{li|I=S2/LR|Q=618}}China is part of the Global South -> how do you know that? under what conditions would it become part of the Global North? If China changed but Mongolia didn't what would happen to the Brandt Line?

{{li|I=S2/LR|Q=618}}Belarus is part of the Global North

{{li|I=S2/LR|Q=618}}Ukraine is part of the Global North -> if the Global North and Global South actually meant anything, wouldn't Ukraine have to be part of the Global South, to explain the fact Russia wants to annex it and get rid of a distinct Ukrainian nationality?

{{li|I=S2/LR|Q=618}}Greenland is part of the Global North -> then why are the United States and Denmark fighting over a bunch of Inuit people

{{li|I=S2/LR|Q=618}}Taiwan is part of the Global North -> okay, now that's just an offense against geography

{{li|I=S2/LR|Q=618}}Australia is part of the Global North -> that's a little funny but when the geometry works out on an "orange peel" map I guess I can let it go.

{{li|I=S2/LR|Q=618}}Greece is part of the Global South -> so according to some academic papers, people don't actually know how to classify Greece and it "breaks open the dominant narrative". [https://www.academia.edu/101849118/Greece_and_the_Global_South_Gestures_of_spatial_disobedience] that's a relief, although I find it strange to call a purported physical structure of geographical borders put together a "narrative". by those standards Rhizome would be a narrative and in the right circumstances it would be possible to say "the anarchist narrative fell apart" and call returning to a previous dominant narrative 'not having narratives'. the concept of "narratives falling away" is a bunch of nonsense.
