First published in 1981, The Third World Calamity is a controversial book on the social conditions, politics, economics and cultural barriers that have, according to the author, stagnated Western-style socio-economic development in the Third World.

The content of the book and the language used is a reflection of its era and no offence is meant by the Publishers to any reader by this republication. This book will be of interest to students of history, political science, international relations, and geography.
