Answers


Dana
Political instability: coups, civil wars and borders disputes experienced in the third world hinder the development of both agriculture and industry hence slowing economic development
Colonial and neocolonialism legacies: third world countries lack economic independence due to neocolonialism. Their economic resources are controlled and exploited by developed countries through multinational corporations and international trade
High population growth: third world countries are faced by high population growth rate due to improved medical and health services leading to massive expenditure on food importation
Natural calamities: third world countries have been subjected to epidemic catastrophes. This has led to huge amounts of resources being spent on controlling diseases at the expense of industrial investments
