[Edit this paragraph] Word explanation

Developed countries, also known as developed countries, are Refers to a country with a higher level of economic development, more advanced technology, and a higher standard of living. It is also called an industrialized country or a highly economically developed country (MEDC). Most developed countries have higher per capita GDP. However, higher per capita GDP can also be achieved by developing natural resources, and such countries may not have more advanced technology (such as Saudi Arabia develops oil, Nauru develops phosphate fertilizers, etc.).

Other terms often used to refer to the two groups of developed and developing countries (also known as developing countries) are: first world/third world, northern countries/southern countries, industrialized countries/ Non-industrialized countries, developed countries/underdeveloped countries, rich countries/poor countries. Although Western countries have similar meanings, they are not equivalent to developed countries.

In the operation of the United Nations, there is currently no established tradition to indicate which countries or regions are developed or under development. The general concept is that Japan in Asia, the United States and Canada in North America, Australia and New Zealand in Oceania, and Europe are developed regions or regions. In international trade statistics, the Southern African Customs Union is considered a developed region, while Israel is a developed country; Eastern European countries and the countries of the former Soviet Union in Europe are neither considered developed nor developed countries. developing countries. Some people believe that becoming a member of the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) (although Mexico and Turkey, which are developing countries, are also members) is to gain international recognition and become an important symbol of a developed country.

[Edit this paragraph]Detailed introduction

An economically developed country relative to developing countries.

Usually refers to the 24 member countries participating in the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, of which the seven most developed countries are the United States, Japan, Germany, Britain, France, Italy and Canada. After the Second World War, driven by the third scientific and technological revolution, some capitalist countries with relatively strong economic strength took the lead in adopting the latest science and technology, which improved capitalist labor productivity and economic growth, becoming economically developed countries. The economies of these countries occupy an important position in the world and have a greater impact on world economy and politics. The period from the mid-1950s to the early 1970s experienced rapid economic development, known as the golden age of capitalism; from the early 1970s to the 1980s, economic stagflation occurred, followed by low-speed economic growth. With the development of production and the concentration of capital in these countries, monopoly has also developed greatly, and the internationalization of monopoly capital has reached an unprecedented scale. Economic ties and cooperation between these countries have developed, but conflicts have also developed and tended to intensify.

Developed countries are divided into superpowers and the second world. A superpower is a country with strong military and economic power that seeks world hegemony. It is characterized by relying on its own strong military and economic power to promote hegemonism around the world and engage in economic exploitation, political oppression and military aggression against other countries. Or control, trying to dominate the entire world. After the collapse of the Soviet Union, the United States became the world's only superpower. The second world is the developed countries between the superpowers and developing countries. This was proposed by Mao Zedong when he divided countries in the world into three worlds. The economic and military strength of these countries are not as good as those of the superpowers, and they are controlled and threatened by the superpowers to varying degrees. However, their economic and military strength are stronger than those of developing countries, and many countries still retain different forms of colonial rule over some developing countries.

From the perspective of world economic and political geography, developed countries are generally located in the northern hemisphere, so they are often called northern countries; third world developing countries are generally located in the southern hemisphere, so they are called southern countries. For a long time, the old order of international politics and international economy has always maintained the rule and plunder of imperialism and colonialism over the vast colonies and semi-colonies through aggression, expansionary wars, and extra-economic and economic means, so that the oppressed nations have political power. Politically and economically, it is completely in a subordinate position at the mercy of others. After the victory of the World Anti-Fascist War, with the independence of a series of countries in Asia, Africa and Latin America and the rise of the Third World, the colonial system collapsed and the era of imperialism doing whatever it wanted in international political affairs was basically over. However, the old international economic order still exists. The old international economic order mainly consists of three parts: the international production system based on the capitalist international division of labor, the international trade system based on unequal exchange, and the international financial system based on monopoly capital. Its core is that developed countries occupy a monopoly position and control and exploit developing countries. As the main body of the old international economic order, the United States, together with developed countries, continues to control and exploit third world countries in the name of "division of labor, trade" and "equivalent exchange" by taking advantage of the already existing unreasonable "international division of labor." , seriously hindering the economic development of third world countries, and is the fundamental reason for the poverty and backwardness of third world countries.

The concept of developed countries was proposed by the OECD.

In June 1995, the Development Assistance Committee of the OECD announced that Singapore would be classified as a "developed country" starting from 1996, based on the fact that Singapore's per capita GDP has reached US$24,000. However, Singapore believes that its domestic industrial base is still relatively weak and requires the OECD to further study and clarify the standards of developed countries. In January 1996, the OECD changed its original decision and reclassified Singapore as a "more developed developing country."

Developed countries are classified according to per capita national product, but this is not complete. For example, the per capita GNP of the oil countries in the Middle East is higher than that of many developed countries, but they are still not developed countries.

It is even more nonsense to say that developed countries in the narrow sense are members of the G7. Any definition of developed countries includes the Nordic countries, such as the Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg, Switzerland, and Austria. And Australia and New Zealand.

Developed countries in a narrow sense: including Northern Europe, Western European countries in a broad sense, the United States, Canada, Australia, and Japan.

Developed countries in a broad sense: including Northern Europe, Western European countries in a broad sense, the United States, Canada, Japan, South Korea, Singapore, South Africa, Australia, and New Zealand.

South Africa: It is a developed country because its economic structure is the same as that of developed countries.

South Africa’s per capita GNP in 2001 was US$3,060, which does not seem to be enough to be rated as a developed country. But in sub-Saharan Africa, it is the richest country in the region, and its development background is also different from other black African countries. South Africa is basically an open economy, and foreign trade occupies an important position in the national economy. South Africa's trading partners are mainly European countries. In recent years, South Africa's trade with Asian and African countries has also developed rapidly. As the leader of Africa, it is natural to be rated as a developed country. (This is different from the content updated by the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs in January 2009. The details are as follows:

Economy South Africa is a middle-income developing country. It is the most economically developed country in Africa, with a GDP It accounts for about one-fifth of Africa's GDP. It is rich in natural resources and is one of the world's top five mineral-producing countries. It has a relatively complete financial and legal system and good infrastructure in mining, manufacturing, agriculture and services. Industry is the four pillars of the economy, and deep well mining and other technologies are in the world's leading position)

The same principle is true: the per capita national output of the Middle East oil countries is very high, and even ranked among the top in the world in the 1980s and 1990s. However, It has never been considered a developed country, and the same goes for Brunei. The reason is that their economic structure is the same as that of developing countries.

In the World Economic Outlook report of the International Monetary Fund in April 2007, there were 29 advanced economies, which is different from the OECD. They are: the United States, Germany, France, Italy, Spain, Netherlands, Belgium, Austria, Finland, Greece, Portugal, Ireland, Luxembourg, Japan, United Kingdom, Canada, South Korea, Australia, Taiwan Province of China, Sweden, Switzerland, Hong Kong (Special Administrative Region), Denmark, Norway, Israel, Singapore, New Zealand, Cyprus, Iceland.

Developed countries are mainly the United States, Japan, the United Kingdom, Germany, France, Italy, Canada, Switzerland, Belgium, the Netherlands, Finland, Norway, Denmark, Sweden, Greece, Iceland, Portugal, Spain, Luxembourg, and Austria , Australia, New Zealand, Ireland, South Africa, etc. (Recognized by the United Nations)

Russia's per capita GNP in 2001 was only US$1,690, less than half of Brazil (US$3,610). Russia has long lost its former glory as an economic power.
