Global Power Structures

This series exami­nes how glo­bal power struc­tures shape the rela­ti­onship bet­ween strong sta­tes and the count­ries that depend on them. Powerful sta­tes keep others weak by using them for cheap raw mate­ri­als and labor. They build sys­tems that crea­te poli­ti­cal and eco­no­mic depen­dence. Public deba­tes in the West often hide how the­se sys­tems work. Strict migra­ti­on rules help keep this order in place. The wealth of strong sta­tes reli­es on the weak­ne­ss of others. The Injustice Chronicle explains how this sys­tem works, why it con­ti­nues, and what it cau­ses, inclu­ding wars, dis­pla­ce­ment, and the rise of right‑wing movements.
