If economic globalization trends continue, the world will probably have approach of

Exam Year(s)

UGC NET - 2012,

Answer: D

The key gives a single economy as the likely result if economic globalisation trends continue. Globalisation of trade, finance and production tends to join national markets into one world market, so the world would approach a single economy.

A multipolar system or multipolar economy would mean several centres of power or production, and a unipolar system refers to political and military power and not to economic integration. The question speaks of economic globalisation, and the keyed option is the one that follows from it directly.

Globalization improved living conditions but also enhanced inequality between the North and the South. As a result of Globalization, which one of the following regions constitutes the highest, telephone traffic per person per year ?

Exam Year(s)

UGC NET - 2012,

Answer: B

The key gives Oceania, North America and Europe as the regions with the highest telephone traffic per person per year. These are the regions with the highest incomes and the widest network coverage, so telephone use per person is highest there.

Africa and parts of Asia have far lower use per person, so options that include Africa or put Asia among the leaders do not fit. The question's preface about globalisation widening the gap between North and South also points to the richer regions. I have followed the key and have not checked a statistical table.

Exam Year(s)

UGC NET - 2012,

Answer: D

The non-governmental organisation dedicated to the release of political prisoners all over the world is Amnesty International. It campaigns for prisoners of conscience, that is people jailed for their beliefs, and against torture and the death penalty.

The Red Cross works for the relief of the victims of war and disaster. CARE is an aid and development organisation. Medecins sans Frontieres gives medical help in conflict and crisis zones. None of them is centred on political prisoners, so the keyed answer is Amnesty International.

Who among the following stated that 'religion is not the opium of the people, but the vitamin of the weak' ?

Exam Year(s)

UGC NET - 2013,

Answer: A

Following the key, the remark that religion is not the opium of the people but the vitamin of the weak is credited to Regis Debray, the French writer linked with guerrilla theory, who contrasted it with Marx's opium phrase.

Marx himself said that religion is the opium of the people, so he is the one being answered. Lenin and Nasution are not known for this remark. The saying is a reply to Marx's famous line, and it points out that religion can give strength to the weak, which makes it a source of political energy in war.

Non-traditional security thread does not include

Exam Year(s)

UGC NET - 2013,

Answer: D

Foreign trade is not a non-traditional security threat. Non-traditional threats come from non-military sources: illegal migration, terrorism and drug trafficking with hawala money transfers all cross borders and endanger the safety of people and states.

Foreign trade is a normal economic activity, so it is not on the list of such threats. Questions on the threat from non-state actors and from the environment, health and economy are grouped as non-traditional because the threat is not a military attack by another state.

During the Cold War era, which one of the following trends was promoted by relaxation in military tensions ?

Exam Year(s)

UGC NET - 2013,

Answer: B

The relaxation of military tensions in the Cold War was called detente. It was a trend towards easing of strains between the super powers, the US and the USSR, in the 1970s, marked by arms control talks such as SALT.

Entente is an older term for a friendly understanding between powers, the military-industrial complex was not closed, and a flow of military technology continued, so those options are wrong.

North Atlantic Treaty Organisation (NATO) has its headquarters in which of the following cities ?

Exam Year(s)

UGC NET - 2013,

Answer: A

NATO has its headquarters in Brussels, Belgium, to which it moved in 1967 from Paris after France left the integrated military command.

Geneva, Luxembourg and Paris do not house the headquarters, although Paris was the seat before 1967. NATO was set up by the North Atlantic Treaty of 1949 in Washington, and Brussels also houses the political and military staffs of the alliance, which is why the city is identified with it.
