Communism in the Third World is a Lovian non-fiction pamphlet by Yuri Medvedev based upon a study of the Blackburn University Center for Third World Studies. It formulates an answer to several questions by studying two specific cases of the rise of communism in the twentieth century; Cuba and Chile. The book tries to understand why communism so widely spread in Third World countries, where the popularity of the movement lies and just how communist the governments or rebels really are. The final question that the researchers tried to answer is if communism does make a difference.
