I want to give interested editors heads up that this article will likely a become a subject of an educational assignment aiming to expand it and raise to to a Good Article class over the next month or so. This assignment has led to good results in the past, but please note that with the exception of the course supervisor (myself) the new editors who will be working on this article are new to Wikipedia. Any assistance and guidance you can offer to them will be much appreciated, and let's keep this in mind :) Thanks, -- Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk 01:42, 24 May 2010 (UTC)
Hi Group,
I was thinking that it may be a good idea to discuss old hegemonic powers - like we have learned about through our readings. So we could break down the article within the pre 13th century, and the 13th to 15th centuries. We could then break it down from the 15th century to the 18th century; and then from 18th century til the current time period.
I guess we should also define the terms semi-perphery and perphery countries and link them to it. Then maybe we could also talk about theories on who/which countries could become a future core country.
So we would need someone focusing on the following time periods (with the economy and focusing on the core countries)
What does everyone think of this?

I like setting it up like this. I would be willing to do the early 19th century till present, since that is what I have the most experience in. If someone else wants it though I'm willing to do any section
LBPearson ( talk) 21:18, 25 May 2010 (UTC)
I also like setting it up this way. However, I do think that we should define what a core country is before we give examples and things like that. We should define what a "core country" is and then define semi periphery and periphery also and link them. I can start the intro paragraph as I described and then everyone can pitch in and touch it hope how our group feels best about it. I would also be willing to take the 18th to 19th century core country section if this is ok with the rest of the group. Prg22 ( talk) 21:47, 25 May 2010 (UTC)
May someone look at and answer my above question? (Also, to continue discussions, add a colon before your comment.) Buggie111 ( talk) 21:52, 25 May 2010 (UTC)
Hi, I can take the 13th to 15th century, if that's okay with everyone, or i could do whatever else is left. And to answer Buggie's question: Even though China is now a gigantic economy and supplier of goods to the whole world, to be a core, the standard of living of the Chinese has to increase, including better living conditions, higher wages, better health care, and more overall opportunities for the Chinese people. While there are still sweatshops (working for the western multinational corporations) in China, where people work for a few dollars a day, i don't think that China will be considered a core state.

Hello Group! I don't mind doing 18th to early 19th century. I plan to use a bit of what we are reading in The Age of Empire and perhaps some outside sources, utilizing sources at the library and also whatever I may be able to find on Google Scholar. There was a lot of transitioning it seems during this period and I will discuss that as well. See you all tomorrow in class. AngGor ( talk) 02:44, 26 May 2010 (UTC)
SO I took Piotr's advice and here is how the Semi-Periphery project or page is broken out:
If we want to use this break down as a guide - then I would be willing to work on the Function (sociological theory) section and the Effects section. We don't have to break it out exactly as this other section but it is a good thing to base ours on. I think it would also be important to include a Definitions section - which maybe is something we could all work on together.
Here is my specific plan for what I plan to work on for the Function & Effects sections:
Let me know what everyone thinks of this.
I see that there is a need for us to do more than a section each, if we are going to use the semi-periphery article as a guide. Therefore, here is my plan.
Also, we'll need to find some illustrations so the page doesn't look too dry. Sav12 ( talk) 03:45, 26 May 2010 (UTC)
I will take the History and Development from 1875-Today. I could also go 1700-Today if need be. I'll do anything else if we need it too.
LBPearson ( talk) 06:22, 26 May 2010 (UTC)
I will take the 16th-17th century and I will start the introduction paragraph that will start defining what core countries are.
