29. a) The developed countries of the first world generally referred to as ‘Global 
North’ were concerned with the ozone depletion and global warming, whereas 
the developing countries of the third world called the ‘Global South” were 
anxious to address the relationship between economic development and 
environmental management. 
b) i) There were major differences between the countries of the North and the 
South over environmental issues. The developed countries of the North 
wanted everyone to be made equally responsible for ecological conservation. 
The Global South on the other hand felt that much of the environmental 
degradation caused today is the result of economic activities pursued by the 
Global North. Hence, they believed that the Global North owes a greater 
responsibility of undoing the damage now. 
ii) Moreover, the developing countries are undergoing a process of 
industrialisation and they should not be subjected to the same restrictions 
which apply to the developed countries. 
iii)These two concerns were effectively addressed by the Principle of 
“Common but differentiated responsibilities. It accepted that the special needs 
of the developing countries be taken into consideration and in view of different 
contributions of global environmental degradation; states have common but 
differentiated responsibilities.

30. a) The author is talking about contradiction regarding adoption of development 
models either socialist or capitalist. Political implications of this contradiction 
may result in the differences among party members itself and government can 
issue licensing and permits in more complicated manner 
b) Congress was pursuing this policy as a sole criterion of achieving maximum 
increased in production. Yes, it was related to the nature of opposition parties 
to be pursued liberal economic policies and incentives to private investment. 
c) No, there was not a contradiction between the central leadership of the 
Congress Party and its state level leaders because state emphasised on 
states’ ownership, regulation. Control over key sectors improved productivity 
whereas control leadership pursued liberal economic policies and incentives to 
private investment.
