Résumé anglais Catherine Coquery-Vidrovitch, Thirdworldism and Multiculturalism The successive stages through which occidental thinking about nonindustrial societies has passed over the last two centuries is related both to the evolution of racism and of the human science. The idea of Third World helped to relativize the notions of "savagery" and of "development". If the opposition between tradition and modernity is now obsolete, it is nevertheless maintained in the perverse form of the identity concept which is often opposed to that of ethnicity.
