THE “third world” of the developing and, for the most part, newly independent nations is, for Communists of all brands and allegiances, both a crucial arena of political competition against the “imperialists” and the center of their hopes for new victories. Yet there are important differences in the way Moscow and Peking view these opportunities. The Soviet leadership believes that the many poor and ambitious countries will, later if not sooner, decide that Communism offers them the best prospects for raising their status in the world. Chinese Communist propaganda, on the other hand, calls for an ever more militant struggle of “national liberation” to expel the “imperialists” from Asia, Africa, and Latin America and to unite the developing countries under Peking's leadership. Thus, in addition to being a principal focus of Communist hopes and efforts, the question of the “correct” policy toward the third world has unleashed deep-set rivalries and antagonisms between and within ruling and nonruling Communist parties alike.

Justice in health is a serious and important challenge throughout the world. Use of health & treatment services based on need is the most appropriate method to measure justice in health & treatment sector. Use of health services can be measured by the rate of visits for such services. Outpatient's visits are particularly a valuable scale for better understanding of justice-based use of health services as well as to explain regional differences.All convenient sources were included in the paper using key words. The sources have been published in Persian and English languages.Researches indicated that studies conducted in developing countries are very extensive. Some injustices in use of health services are seen either in Iran or other countries. There is no standard for times of visits. The time of visits is recorded consistently in advanced countries which is ignored in Iran. The studies are conducted in advanced countries to change doctors' views but there are no such studies in Iran.The studies of justice-based use of health services should be conducted annually to evaluate the rate of justice growth in healthcare system. Furthermore, referral registration system is necessary to conduct better studies. As a result, it is very essential to change habits of public and doctors' view thus to reduce health costs.

In almost all the developing countries ‘planning’ has become the open sesame to an industrial future. Private enterprise, it has been argued, is either incapable or unwilling to provide the investment necessary to develop the world, and therefore the task must be carried out by the state, acting through a wide variety of ministries, nationalized corporations, and ‘mixed’ businesses in which the state is the main shareholder. But making a plan is not the same thing as carrying it out, as most of the nations of the Third World have discovered to their cost. A new and highly sophisticated administrative structure will be necessary to carry out the national plan, and the existing government systems, which are mostly based on foundations laid when the responsibilities of the central government were very much smaller, are mostly inadequate. This dilemma can be seen most obviously in the case of Brazil, where a strenuous and partially successful effort has been made to reform the administration and to fit it for its new tasks. What lessons can be learnt from the successes and failures of the administrative reform in Brazil?

The Peace Corps: A Challenge to Physicians (A communication from R. Sargent Shriver, Director) We in the United States are living in an era of remarkable medical progress. Morbidity and mortality rates are at a record low. Many of the age-old pestilences are under control, and the life span of our citizens is increasing year by year. These effects of medical progress have not been realized in many developing countries of the world. Many of these countries continue to suffer from a high incidence of diseases and conditions such as smallpox, malaria, tuberculosis, dysentery, and nutritional deficiency—long considered under control or of relatively minor concern in the United States.
