    I thought this centre periphery idea was about how close to capital one is. However iirc, oppression is way more violent in the periphery.

    difficult to exploit by the center that thus are mostly outside of the class struggle. This has been explained in the lesser known works of James C. Scott: “The Art of Not Being Governed”. Admittedly, such spaces get smaller and smaller (maybe Mars next?), but they are worth keeping in mind (and the book also is an important reminder of the millennia old and still continuing colonial Chinese empire).

    Is this like the TAZ idea ?
