Abstract:"The Global South is relatively neglected in research about our "compartmentalised world". The volume of publications on inequality has increased five-fold since 1992, but many of these focus on the top one per cent of households located in the Global North (International Social Science Council 2016) much like Thomas Piketty's work (e.g., Piketty, 2014) and others published in leading journals such asSocial Forces (see, for example, Kwon 2016). Yet, both spatial and social inequalities are widespread and increasing within and between groups in Africa and between Africa and the rest of the world (Obeng-Odoom, 2013b, 2014a). So, in this book my focus is on stratification in the "Global South" or what Frantz Fanon (1961) called "the wretched of the earth", their experiences of appalling economic inequalities, the dire implications for society, economy and environment, why this compartmentalization continues to deepen, and what can be done about it. Analytically, the focus on stratification provides a more comprehensive approach to studying the "Global South" because the question of stratification leads to additional questions about inquality in relation to whom, what, where, why and how and, hence, throws the searchlight on the bigger question of "economic backwardness" in the Global South"--
