In his essay “The Uncanny” (1919), Freud theorized the psychological implications of those aesthetic effects which disturb us without us quite knowing why.  While, according to Freud, the uncanny or das unheimlich evokes a peculiar form of affect within “the field of the frightening” (123), it is a type of fear distinct from that produced by horror and terror.  The uncanny, he argues, registers the traumatic return of “what was once known and had long been familiar” (124), but which had been repressed.  Explorations of the uncanny have linked the affect to repetition and the death drive (Royle 84), surrealism (97), uncertainty (Jentsch 7), and “a certainty that goes beyond any certainty that science can provide” (Dolar 22).  

Global South is a phrase often heard in the academic parlance to categorise a group of nations which have been broadly classified in economic terms by the United Nations Trade and Development (UNCTAD) based on certain defining characteristics (socio-economic and political factors). The countries or continents which come under this category are Africa, Latin America and the Caribbean, Asia (excluding Australia and New Zealand). However, to classify economic grounds poses severe questions about factors contributing to the dissemination of this inequality. This unevenness as one suspects can be a major reason for armed conflicts often leading to tensions and permanent war zones.
