BGlobalism : Non-state actors ✓ Correct
CDependency : Economic interests
DFeminism : Gender
Correct answer: (B) Globalism : Non-state actors — The pair that is not correctly matched links globalism only with non-state actors.
Explanation
★The pair that is not correctly matched links globalism only with non-state actors.
★Globalism, as a paradigm, centres on the world economy and global class and structural relations.
★Globalization in fact involves states, institutions, social movements and NGOs together, not non-state actors alone.
★Realism is rightly paired with states, the central actors of power politics.
★Dependency theory is rightly paired with economic interests, stressing core-periphery exploitation.
★Feminism is rightly paired with gender, the lens it brings to world politics.
★It is pluralism, not globalism, that is most associated with the rise of non-state actors.
★Sorting paradigms by their core unit of analysis is a recurring exam theme.
