https://padlet.com/list4/38d8fqpdrze3kndj What is the core periphery model? To what extent does Thailand fit the core-periphery model? en-us 2021-09-14 07:56:01 UTC 2025-10-30 12:02:24 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.com/list4/38d8fqpdrze3kndj/wish/1741830785 The core periphery model is a model which showcases the core area, which is the area of high development and investment, is usually the urban area where job opputunities and better standard of living is found, as well as the periphery, which is the area outside of the core region, usually representing the rural areas where development is low, and people usually move from periphery to core for better living. 

Thailand fits to an extent as there are solid examples of vore regions such as Bangkok, Chonburi etc. but also peripheral regions such as Nan where development is not as matured. However there is also regions in Thailand that fit to neither of these regions]]> 2021-09-15 06:21:11 UTC https://padlet.com/list4/38d8fqpdrze3kndj/wish/1741830785 https://padlet.com/list4/38d8fqpdrze3kndj/wish/1741830837 core periphery model is a model that represents where the most economically active area is (core) and the activity slowly decreases as you enter the 'periphery'
core
- high pop density
- high econ development
- more jobs + variety of jobs
- uraban
peripheral is kind of the opposite

thailand follows this model to some extent
- exceptions -> phuket because of its tourism
- core -> central -> bkk + samut prakan ]]> 2021-09-15 06:21:13 UTC https://padlet.com/list4/38d8fqpdrze3kndj/wish/1741830837 https://padlet.com/list4/38d8fqpdrze3kndj/wish/1741831366 -the core in a core periphery model represents urban countries with the most financial power and control. These core countries control the periphery countries and are mostly made up of countries in europe, north america, canada and australia. 
-The periphery in a core periphery model represent countries in areas such as Africa, South east asia and south america. These countries are more rural ]]> 2021-09-15 06:21:30 UTC https://padlet.com/list4/38d8fqpdrze3kndj/wish/1741831366 https://padlet.com/list4/38d8fqpdrze3kndj/wish/1741834108 Core periphery model: Shows spatially how the economy is dispersed in core regions (dominant countries - HICs) and the surrounding peripheral (LICs) and semi-peripheral regions.

In Thailand, Bangkok is considered the core region as it has a high population and it is where most economic activity occurs, while provinces in the North such as Nan is considered a peripheral region as it is sparsely populated and lack wealth and economic development.]]> 2021-09-15 06:22:56 UTC https://padlet.com/list4/38d8fqpdrze3kndj/wish/1741834108 task23 https://padlet.com/list4/38d8fqpdrze3kndj/wish/1741836927 Core periphery model suggests that there's two group in development. Core is the group of countries/region that are more economically developed and 'exploit' the peripheral region's resources. Peripheral countries/regions are less economically developed.

Thailand fits the peripheral model to a great extent. Core regions like Bangkok (urban) are more invested in by the country.]]> 2021-09-15 06:24:19 UTC https://padlet.com/list4/38d8fqpdrze3kndj/wish/1741836927 https://padlet.com/list4/38d8fqpdrze3kndj/wish/1741837166 Core periphery model:
Shows spatially how economic, political, and cultural authority is dispersed in core/dominant regions and the surrounding peripheral and semi-peripheral regions.

Thailand somewhat fits into the core-periphery model as the core would be central Thailand with an exception of Phuket. The backwash effect would also fit into Thailand as many people, especially from the North and Northeastern regions tend to gravitate towards central Bangkok. ]]> 2021-09-15 06:24:25 UTC https://padlet.com/list4/38d8fqpdrze3kndj/wish/1741837166 https://padlet.com/list4/38d8fqpdrze3kndj/wish/1741837503 - More economically developed core, often exploiting the peripheral's resources
- Less ecomically developed peripheral, with a lower and only a small range jobs available

I think Thailand fits very closely to the model, Thailand has a single economically strong core with a high population density in its central regions. Similar to the model, the regions outside of the economically developed core, notably the North and North Eastern areas are much less developed. This is represented by the rural areas having significantly lower GDP per capita than the urban central.  ]]> 2021-09-15 06:24:35 UTC https://padlet.com/list4/38d8fqpdrze3kndj/wish/1741837503 https://padlet.com/list4/38d8fqpdrze3kndj/wish/1741837779 the core-periphery model describes a central region with the most economic development in a country (the core) and surrounding regions with less economic development.
characteristics of the core include:
- highest population density
- most wealth, resources, services
- benefits from cumulative causation
characteristics of periphery:
- scarcely populated
- less wealth, resources
- either benefits from the core (spread effect) or gets drained by it (backwash effect)]]> 2021-09-15 06:24:43 UTC https://padlet.com/list4/38d8fqpdrze3kndj/wish/1741837779 https://padlet.com/list4/38d8fqpdrze3kndj/wish/1741837949 Core periphery model helps shows the main areas which have high developments, this is usually areas with a lot of job opportunities and a place where you can live a happier and healthier life.

I think that Thailand fits into the core periphery model because Bangkok is developed and has a lot of job opportunities for people. Bangkok also has good health care which will help people live healthier lives.]]> 2021-09-15 06:24:48 UTC https://padlet.com/list4/38d8fqpdrze3kndj/wish/1741837949 https://padlet.com/list4/38d8fqpdrze3kndj/wish/1741837953 core: capital city, chief port, major industries, urban areas most services and investment.
periphery: development and standards of living decrease with distance from the core. fewer jobs and services, less investment into these areas
Thailand - bangkok is the core with lots of industry. Main port and there is lots of investment into this area. Lots of in-migration into bangkok from rural areas to urban. Very rich compared to other provinces. in-migration usually to find jobs which fits with the core periphery model

- core is high dev, usually capital city, densely populated, urban, lots of economic activity, good infrastructure
-periphery is rural areas, less investment and development, fewer jobs, lower level of wealth than core

Thailand:
- follows model mostly with the central bangkok/capital area being most developed
-exceptions: phuket which is high due to tourism ]]> 2021-09-15 06:25:00 UTC https://padlet.com/list4/38d8fqpdrze3kndj/wish/1741838317 https://padlet.com/list4/38d8fqpdrze3kndj/wish/1741840259 The Core periphery model splits an area into two regions.
The core: usually an urban area with a lot of industry and large amounts of investment and services.
The periphery: areas with fewer jobs and investment with usually less urbanization and wealth.

Thailand is a prime example of the core periphery model as the extremely developed areas eg. Bangkok serve as a core whereas less developed areas eg. the isan region act as the periphery.]]> 2021-09-15 06:26:01 UTC https://padlet.com/list4/38d8fqpdrze3kndj/wish/1741840259
