Abstract
Economic and political underdevelopment are not conditions limited to the Third World. There can be significant differences in the economic resources, political influence and social status among groups and places in advanced industrial countries. The problem is not that these nations lack the economic base, technology, production capacity, social infrastructure, or the collective political power for the development of all segments of society. Rather, regions and subsets of the population in developed nations do not receive the opportunities for economic advancement or participate in making decisions about the type, rate and distribution of development.
