The Three Worlds Theory (), developed by Chinese Communist leader Mao Zedong, posited that international relations comprise three politico-economic worlds: the first world consisting of superpowers, the second world of lesser powers, and the third world of exploited nations.〔(【引用サイトリンク】work=People's Daily )〕 Notably, Chairman Mao included the US and the Soviet Union in the First World group of countries which, respectively, engaged in imperialism and social imperialism. Japan, Europe, and Canada composed the Second World under this theory as developed, Northern countries. Africa, Latin America, and the whole of Asia except Japan formed the Third World. In 1974, then Chinese Vice-Premier Deng Xiaoping explained the Three Worlds Theory in a speech to the United Nations at the special session of the United Nations General Assembly on the problems of raw materials and development, the 6th special session, in April 1974, justifying China's cooperation with non-communist countries. The Three Worlds Theory developed by Mao Zedong should not be confused with the Western Three-World Model which states that the First World comprises the United States and United Kingdom and their allies, the Second World the Soviet Union and China and their allies, and the Third World the neutral and nonaligned countries. Mao's division of the worlds highlighted what he considered to be the patterns of exploitation rather than diplomacy or formal ideology. == Criticism == Some anti-revisionist political parties and organizations were disillusioned by the Three Worlds Theory. Subsequently, in Albania, Enver Hoxha, leader of the Party of Labour of Albania, posited an ideological alternative, opposed to both the Three Worlds Theory and to the Communist Party of the Soviet Union’s stance. This led to the Sino-Albanian split among communist parties previously aligned with China and Albania. The Revolutionary Internationalist Movement and the Maoist Internationalist Movement, founders of the modern Maoist movement, were also highly critical of Three Worlds Theory and left it completely out of their respective programs, considering it to fall under the banner of Mao-Zedong-Thought rather than Marxism–Leninism-Maoism. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Three Worlds Theory」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
