DD203 - Power, Dissent, Equality : TMA06 - nearly ready......

I've been making notes for the TMA essay, but looking at them and taking into account that I am pretty sure that 1200 words will be an absolute maximum for the hand written essay, ther eis going to be far less in the essay answer than I would have liked.

The theme lecture videos are at least useful, and the lecture on Centre-Periphery ends with the advice than any answer has to consider these 4 points.

  • In what ways, and to what extent is the contemporary state to be regarded as the centre of power?
  • Do centres always dominate peripheries?
  • Is political power becoming more centralized or more diffuse?
  • How should centre–periphery relationships, both territorially and functionally, be organized and adjudicated?
 So, I think I'll give it a go tomorrow to get an idea what can actually be done in about 45 minutes and then go for it for real on Thursday. Get it over and done with before the weekend, have the weekend off and then start studying again..........
