There are currently cultures in the world that perform unconsentual mutilation, or practices that otherwise are extremely harmful to human beings. Then there are places that are so destabilised that they turn to religious extremism. China handles it’s case of that by educating and improving the material conditions within it’s relevant regions, which I think is really good.

However what if those regions lie outside your jurisdiction, I.e. autonomous? Is it the duty of Marxist-Leninists to educate and provide better conditions of them, or is the right thing to let them develop on their own terms until they ask for help?

More specifically also:

1. What if they reject outsiders/turn down negotiation?
2. What if they are an actual threat to other people (e.g. terrorism).

I understand that realistically, there’s no real reason for me to be thinking about this. But I would like to understand the world and Marxist-Leninist principles better, thanks.
