12+Core- Periphery Concept
What is the Core? Higher concentration of people and wealth Higher standard of living More job opportunities eg. Richer Areas of Country, Developed Country

how movement of people and resources from the periphery area increases the wealth of the core area
Multiplier Effect Initial development of the core results in benefit that
drive its further development
