Third way can refer to:
- The "Third Way", an economic and political idea that positions itself between democratic socialism and laissez-faire capitalism, combining the ordoliberal "social market" with neo-liberalism. In the late 1990s, several groups independently began using the term "radical centre" to refer to this kind of third way thinking.
- A "third way" approach to Cold War-era foreign policy, siding with neither the US nor the Soviet Union (this in turn spawned the phrase third world). See in that regard the Non-Aligned Movement.
- A "third way" approach to the concept of separation of church and state, neither theocratic nor atheist.
- A "third way" between the stultifying debates had by the left and right wherein arguments are so structural as to be static. One magazine offering an alternative voice -- that of the Christian worldview -- takes Third Way as its title.
- Benito Mussolini often described fascism as the third way between capitalism and socialism. In that vein, there is a modern neo-fascist movement known as the International Third Position or Third Positionists. There is also a related form of anarchism known as National anarchism.
- Another group is Britain is known as the Third Way (UK) (unrelated to Tony Blair's concept of the Third Way). This group was formed in 1990 and contained several former leading members of the British National Front. It claims to have disavowed racist politics and any form of fascism, and promotes economic decentralization (similar to distributism), Direct Democracy along Swiss lines, combined with support for ecological protection and libertarian views on some social issues such as abortion, gay rights, and marijuana. Critics of the group are divided some still regard this group with suspicion because of past ties to the National Front in the 1980s, and dispute their claims to have disavowed racism and fascism. Others accept that the group has changed over the years and point to its attempts to recruit from all ethnic and religious communities.
- The Third Way is also used to describe the philosophy of Libyan leader, Muammar al-Qaddafi set out in his Green Book. It mixes Nationalism, Social-Democracy, Islam and a supposedly direct form of referendum democracy. It was also used by former Argentine President, Juan Peron to describe his philosophy which was basically a more democratic and liberal version of Mussolini's fascism.
- The Third Way is also used to describe a contemporary application of Hegel's Dialectics to modern politics. Thus, a "third way" is simply a synthesis of a thesis and its contradictory antithesis, such as Social-Democracy being a synthesis of Capitalism and its antithesis Communism. In this sense, Aldo Moro's historical compromise can be thought of as a "third way" between Christian Democracy and Communism.
- The Third Way is also used to describe Jesus' way of dealing with conflict. Instead of fight or flight, Walter Wink writes about this third alternative, Righteousness, which levels the playing field between agressor and victim, creditor and debtor, etc.
