Here is the arithmetic that the phrase "Global South" obscures: Africa: 1.6 billion people. Asia: 4.9 billion people. Latin America and the Caribbean: 670 million people. Together: roughly 7.2 billion people out of 8.3 billion on earth. The "Global South" is not a minority asking to be included. It is the majority that has been structured out of power. The entire architecture of the post-war international order, the Security Council veto, the IMF voting weights, the WTO rules, the dollar as a reserve currency, was built to ensure that 7.2 billion people would not have proportional influence over the decisions that shape their lives. That architecture is not natural law. It is a set of choices made by the winners of a particular moment in history, encoded as permanent, and maintained by the threat of consequences for those who question it. Questioning it is not radical. It is arithmetic.
