Abstract

The benefits of the modern technological and industrial developments and the unprecedented postwar expansion in world economic activities benefited all nations, but the benefits, unfortunately, were very unevenly distributed among various countries, depending on many different factors, including the then stages of development of individual countries. This, plus the fact that the developing countries had a far larger population growth than the developed countries, both in absolute and percentage terms, have made the gap between the rich and the poor nations progressively wider. The latest demographic data, however, is cautiously encouraging.
