Fourth-world colonialism, by which I mean the coloniza­tion or exploitation of indigenous minorities whithin third­world or "developing" nations, is as pernicious - as damaging to the colonized - as any other kind of colonialism, the more so that it often goes unrecognized. Ethnocentrism can be as narrow-minded and relationships as exploitative when India or China, for example, deal with Himalayan peoples within their borders (or when their elites decide what is good for untouchables or tribals, or when their men decide what is good for women) as when foreigners do so.
