Is there such a thing as a "second world" country?

I hear countries described as “third world”. I’m assuming it has something to do with industrialization, infant mortality rate, education, infrastructure etc. What constitutes a “second world country” or, for that matter, a “first world” country? Where did the term originate, and is it even polite to use the terms?
