Third World is a name given to nations that are generally considered to be underdeveloped economically. The name Third World arose during the Cold War to refer to nations that did not belong to the First or Second Worlds. While there is debate over the appropriateness of the term, and no alternative is without detractors, the term is one embraced by many Third World nations themselves, particularly in the Non-Aligned Movement. The economist and demographer Alfred Sauvy, in an article published in the French magazine L'Observateur, August 14, 1952, coined the term Third World in referring to countries currently called either "developing" or "under-developed", especially in Latin America, Africa, Oceania, and Asia, that were unaligned with either the Communist Soviet bloc or the Capitalist NATO bloc during the Cold War (1945–1989).[1]. In academic circles, the countries of the Third World are known as the "Third World", the "Global South", the "developing countries", and the "under-developed countries". Economic development workers refer to these nations as the "Two-thirds World" and "The South". Some developers disapprove of the "developing countries" term because the term implies that industrialization is progressive [1]. "Third World" has also been used frequently to refer to the less industrialized countries of the "South" in the "North-South" conflict after it was noted that most (not all) of the industrialized nations appear to be located in the Northern Hemisphere.
