Answer:

B. Is most likely to be from the periphery to the core.

Step-by-step explanation:

Emmanuel Wallenstein developed the World systems theory to understand world history and social change in relation to the economy. according to this theory theory in world economic system some countries are exploited while others benefit.

He devised a three level hierarchy and divided various areas around the globe into core, periphery and semi-periphery areas. The peripheral countries are exploited by the core countries for raw materials, labour and dominated them, while the core counties are dependent on the core countries for capital.

The semi peripheral countries have characteristic of both the peripheral and core countries.

This theory explained the social structure of global inequality. People migrate from peripheral countries to core countries to get a better life.
