Measure and concept of development

The development of a country is measured with statistical indexes such as income per capita (per person) (GDP), life expectancy, the rate of literacy, et cetera. Per capita is a Latin phrase meaning for each head with Per meaning 'through' or 'by' Life expectancy is the average number of years of life remaining at a given age traditional definition of literacy is considered to be the ability to read and write or the ability to use Language to read, write, listen, The UN has developed the HDI, a compound indicator of the above statistics, to gauge the level of human development for countries where data is available. The Human Development Index ( HDI) is an index combining normalized measures of Life expectancy, Literacy, Educational attainment, and GDP

Developing countries are in general countries which have not achieved a significant degree of industrialization relative to their populations, and which have, in most cases a medium to low standard of living. In Political geography and International politics, a country is a Political division of a geographical entity is a process of social and economic change whereby a human group is transformed from a Pre-industrial society into an industrial one The standard of living refers to the quality and quantity of goods and services available to people and the way these goods and services are distributed within a population There is a strong correlation between low income and high population growth. In Probability theory and Statistics, correlation, (often measured as a correlation coefficient) indicates the strength and direction of a linear In Biology a population is the collection of inter-breeding organisms of a particular Species; in Sociology

The terms utilized when discussing developing countries refer to the intent and to the constructs of those who utilize these terms. Other terms sometimes used are less developed countries (LDCs), least economically developed countries (LEDCs), "underdeveloped nations" or Third World nations, and "non-industrialized nations". Third World is a name given to nations that are generally considered to be underdeveloped economically Conversely, the opposite end of the spectrum is termed developed countries, most economically developed countries (MEDCs), First World nations and "industrialized nations". The term developed country, or advanced country, is used to categorize countries with developed Economies in which the tertiary and quaternary sectors The Human Development Index ( HDI) is an index combining normalized measures of Life expectancy, Literacy, Educational attainment, and GDP The term " first world " refers to countries that are capitalist, which are technologically advanced and whose

To moderate the euphemistic aspect of the word developing, international organizations have started to use the term Less economically developed country (LEDCs) for the poorest nations which can in no sense be regarded as developing. A euphemism is a substitution of an agreeable or less offensive expression in place of one that may offend or suggest something unpleasant to the listener or in the case of doublespeak International Organization is a peer-reviewed Academic journal that covers the entire field of International affairs. Third World is a name given to nations that are generally considered to be underdeveloped economically That is, LEDCs are the poorest subset of LDCs. This also moderates the wrong tendency to believe that the standard of living in the entire developing world is the same.

The concept of the developing nation is found, under one term or another, in numerous theoretical systems having diverse orientations — for example, theories of decolonization, liberation theology, Marxism, anti-imperialism, and political economy. Decolonization refers to the undoing of Colonialism, the establishment of governance or authority through the creation of settlements by another country or jurisdiction Liberation theology is a school of Theology within Christianity, particularly in the Roman Catholic Marxism is the political philosophy and practice derived from the work of Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels. Anti-imperialism, strictly speaking is a term that may be applied to or movement opposed to some form of Imperialism. Political economy originally was the term for studying production buying and selling and their relations with law custom and government

Critics believe that at times the word "developing" is a misnomer. In the case of countries ravaged by European colonialism, the word "re-developing" may be more accurate since there were successful economic systems prior to colonialism. Allegedly due to ethnocentrism, Western analysts generally deem these prior interactions invalid and do not consider them "developed". The premise is that "to develop" is the same thing as "to develop in a western manner".
