Abstract: Abstract The Cold War was basically a period of neo-imperialism and neocolonialism pursued on the pretext of threat perception by both the superpowers. The function of the Third World is to provide services for the rich, offering cheap labour, resources, markets, opportunities for investment, as Noam Chomsky said. Whenever a developing or an underdeveloped country of Asia, Africa or Latin America denies it to the West, conflict ensues. The Cold War epoch and the present global scenario only endorse this view.
