"Third World" "Under Developed" " Developing Economies" "Un Industrialized"
"Southern states " have been the terms used which have some degree of
negative stigma attached to them. One of my friend  is working on a Phd
project on rural development programs in Asia and Africa , she is not
comfortable in using these terms for her theses. Does anyone have
suggestions ???? or alternative terms ????
