Jokey Horse-Jockey North-South Rapport
Diagnostic-cum-Prognostic-Academic Perspectives on Who Truly Depends on Whom
No doubt. North-South relationship involving poor and rich
countries is very convoluted; based and built on exploitative, unequal
and unfair equilibria. It is purely jockey-horse-like connubium that
serves one party as it disserves the other. This is why deconstructing
and detoxifying this relationship is sine qua non. The author argues
that the parties in this relationship must revisit it to make sure it
equally benefits both for the benefit of the whole world. Importantly,
the major question posed is: Why did the two global halves maintain and
tolerate such toxic rapport while knowingly it is but colonial and
unjust? The question is answered in this academic treatise which asks
the parties to hark back; and thereby do justice to each other by
viewing themselves as humans with shared needs and future whose lesson
from the past may buttress them to be major thespians in realising world
peace. This is because their parasitic relationship has fueled many
conflicts revolving around the struggle for controlling resources in the
South in order to sell to the North.
