What is the major underlying assumption of the core-periphery model?
◦ that the wealth of the developed core will eventually diffuse to the less developed periphery
◦ that the different levels of development between the core and the periphery are caused by the relative levels of natural resources in each area
◦ that the less developed periphery will eventually revolt against the wealthier core
◦ that the developed core achieved its wealth primarily by taking advantage of the southern periphery, through either colonialism or imperialism
◦ that the core and periphery will work together to eliminate uneven development
