This article is a discussion piece looking at the the centre-periphery model of class struggle presented in FARJ’s "Social Anarchism and Organisation" and De Jong’s "Some Remarks on the Libertarian Conception of Revolutionary Change". This article by one of our members will seek to unpack the centre-periphery model and discuss its relevance to class-struggle anarchists in so-called Australia.
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 ?
