myself I don't like a lot the geo-economied 'South'.
Because a write rationale for peace and development could be supported also by Northern and Western organizations. Even by American organizations and famous personnalities.
I should propose for example a Peace Group, because our concern, here in my European group, are:
- the militarization of Internet
- the strenght of quasi-monopoly positions of a group that will create great frustrations in a lot of countries
- the privatization of everything, even words, that lead to war-minded processes.
But still open to other proposals.

Sure there is lots to a definition of a group... except that the
G77 on a daily basis at the UN in New York speaks...<br>
<br>
And claims for legitimacy in the 'Global South' also meet with the
inevitable list of collaborators... so it is not easy, but in this
case definitions can be reduced to mere platitudes... myself I
prefer the unadjectivised 'South'<br>
