First world, second world, third world, and fourth world: these labels have become outdated. Argue whether the labels are still viable or not. Can they be used in analysis of developing condition of developing countries. What is the real functioning of labels, why are they produced: need to have a good critical perspective, mainstream approach cannot criticize the labels. Why are the labels created: to justify the revised colonial power relations. Colonial power is a physical power, colonizers were using a direct controlling of other lands. Post-colonial period, concept of domination has been replaced with hegemony. They don"t need to go to the global south to control the countries, they can do it indirectly: in order to justify the indirect presence of colonialism or neocolonialism. De nitions of low-, middle-, and high-income countries.
