- Erica Souza Siqueira & Isleide Arruda Fontenelle (2024): Bringing labor back: Financialized inclusion and survival struggles in the periphery of the periphery
This article examines how financial platforms address the value realization crisis within contemporary capitalism in “the periphery of the periphery.†Drawing from Marxist political economy, particularly in the context of its interpretation in peripheral spaces, we empirically studied the introduction of a digital microcredit platform in the living and working space-time of informal workers in Brazil’s periphery. ... These workers’ labor-life narratives illustrate how credit adherence, while alluring, poses a threat to transform their lives, not only by leading to indebtedness but also by exposing the survival practices that enable their precarious existence on the fringes of the system, which we term “survival struggles.†These struggles manifest in the blurred boundaries between the center and the periphery, as well as between production and reproduction, creating an intersection between the concepts of survival and boundary struggles.

There are also revealed the details of the process ofBulgaria’s passing from the intellectual periphery into the semi-periphery with respect toeconomic research. The academic publications of Naum Dolinski are the ones to beprincipally credited for the gradual coming out of Bulgarian economic science of the stateof being in the periphery and that of imitation. On the other hand they illustrate the factthat during the period after the end of the First World War till the end of the Second World War it has at its disposal the human as well as the scientific potential to begin theprocess of exiting the intellectual periphery.
RePEc:vrn:yrbook:y:2016:i:1:p:231-274 Save to MyIDEAS - Jeffrey G. Williamson (2009): Globalization and the Poor Periphery before 1950
In Globalization and the Poor Periphery before 1950 Jeffrey Williamson examines globalization through the lens of both the economist and the historian, analyzing its economic impact on industrially lagging poor countries in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. ... During the "first global century," from about 1820 to 1913, and the antiglobal autarkic interwar period from 1914 to 1940, new methods of transportation integrated world commodity markets and caused a boom in trade between the core and the periphery. Rapid productivity growth, which lowered the price of manufactured goods, led to a soaring demand in the core countries for raw materials supplied by the periphery. When the boom turned into bust, after almost a century and a half, the gap in living standards between the core and the periphery was even wider than it had been at the beginning of the cycle. The periphery, argues Williamson, obeyed the laws of motion of the international economy.

RePEc:mtp:titles:0262232502 Save to MyIDEAS - A.N. Bufetova ([email protected]) (2009): Inequalities in spatial development of regional centers and regional periphery
The paper analyzes the characteristics observed in the development of Russian central and periphery regions over the period of the national economy growth in 1999-2007; and assesses and analyses the dynamics of such intra-regional «center-periphery» inequalities on the base of both several indicators and integrated «center-periphery» inequality coefficients. The paper shows that economic growth of those years was accompanied with growing «center-periphery» inequalities in the beginning of the period, and with higher periphery indicators growth by the end of the period. The latter contributed to the lower «center-periphery» inequalities. The paper identifies the part of intra-region periphery which mostly contributed to such lower inequality.
RePEc:nos:regioe:2009-4_3 Save to MyIDEAS - Shen, Xin & Han, Yue & Li, Wenqian & Wong, Ka-Chun & Peng, Chengbin (2021): Finding core–periphery structures in large networks
Finding core–periphery structures in networks is very useful in many disciplines such as biology and sociology. However, most of the previous works focus on the single core–periphery structure in the network. A few recent algorithms considering multiple core–periphery are usually not suitable for large networks. ... Moreover, we propose a metric called core–periphery score to evaluate the performance of core–periphery structure detection algorithms. ... Our approach also outperforms other core–periphery detection algorithms for randomly generated networks and real-world networks.

We study a 3-region core-periphery model à la Krugman and compare our results with those of the standard 2-region model. ... Finally, we extend the core-periphery model to the case of n regions and show that stability of concentration with 2 regions implies stability of concentration with any even number of regions.

The subject considered (e.g. dividing a country into a developed center and a periphery underdeveloped) was the subject of early researches in regional development. This paper aims to present the studies from the literature undertaken in the domain of a center-periphery structure. ... The paper continues with a brief presentation of the core-periphery pattern developed by Krugman and reviewing the improvements to the pattern.

The core/periphery model is increasingly being used to analyze interbank networks, as it is consistent with theoretical models of interbank market structures. We show that existing core/periphery estimators are inaccurate when the network is either highly connected relative to the true proportion of banks in the core, or relatively sparsely connected.
