What are the differences in the threats that people in the Third World face and those living in the First World face?
Answers
Answer:
(i) The Third World countries face the threats not only from outside their borders, mostly from neighbours, but also from within. They quarrelled over borders and territories or control over people and populations or all of these simultaneously. On the other hand, most of the First World countries, particularly the powerful Western European countries, faced no serious threats from groups or communities living within those borders. These countries faced threats only from outside their borders.
(ii) New states of the Third World face threats from separatist movements which wanted to form an independent country. Sometimes external and internal threats mearged. A neighbour might help or instigate an internal seperatist movement leading to tensions between the two neighbouring countries.
Answer:
There is a difference in threats faced by people from first world and third world.
Explanation:
Third world refers to the people living in nations that are economically inferior. These people have a lesser threat of war. There is also less threat for norms like disarmament or reduction of use of nuclear weapons. On the other hand, first world people like Japan, faced devastating effects of the nuclear attack on Hiroshima-Nagasaki.
Also, there are environmental threats like rise in temperatures causing global warming is affecting third world people. There are a few islands which are under threat of getting washed off because of global warming. This threat is not faced by first world people.
