    This document contains notes from a class discussing global regions. It defines the differences between the terms "Global South" and "Third World," and explains that the Global South refers more broadly to economically disadvantaged regions, while Third World originally referred only to non-aligned countries during the Cold War. It also outlines the differences between regionalization, which involves regional integration, and globalization, which promotes greater international trade and cultural exchange. Finally, it summarizes that Asian states confront challenges of regionalization and globalization through infrastructure development, education, cultural diplomacy, economic integration, and diplomatic alliances while also modifying domestic policies to protect national interests.
