“…By focusing on unequal relations of power (Di Nunzio, 2019) at different scales (Loubere, 2018), we can better understand the current state of marginalised groups and the processes that got them there, and identify the multisystemic and dimensional challenges to be addressed at different scales to better support marginalised groups' diverse development pathways. Although some scholars have long acknowledged the importance of studying marginality at different scales (Déry, 2010; Gurung & Kollmair, 2005; Leimgruber, 2010), most existing case studies focus only on one scale, whether it be local (Friederichsen & Neef, 2010; Haldar & Abraham, 2015; Sutradhar, 2015), national (Husmann, 2016; Messerli et al, 2015; Timsina, 2002; Zulfiqar et al, 2014) or global (Nshimbi, 2009; Sommers et al, 2001), although exceptions exist (Andriesse et al, 2020; Déry, 2010). Further, the temporal scale is also lacking in frameworks on marginality in development (von Braun & Gatzweiler, 2014), even though marginality is not static, but changes over time (Déry et al, 2019; Gurung & Kollmair, 2005).…”

Existing studies on socio-economic differentiation in Vietnam focus on the inequality between the ethnic majority and minorities while neglecting the disparities among ethnic minorities. Using a framework to analyse marginalisation at different scales, we identified through an extensive literature review the diverse ways in which ethnic groups develop strategies to transform or maintain their marginality. These strategies depend on, at the same time influence, inequalities that manifest in processes of social differentiations and power relations. Elucidating these processes of inequalities enables us to promote livelihood opportunities that support the diverse development pathways of different ethnic groups, thus increasing the relevance of development interventions.

“…In studies on this subject, terms such as: conflict areas, scarcity areas, depressive areas, difficult areas, areas of production reserves, disadvantaged areas, areas of threats, areas lagging behind in development, less developed areas, and marginal or peripheral areas, are used interchangeably. In many cases, they are treated as synonyms of the term "problem area" [19][20][21][22][23][24][25]. However, their connotation is different, and such free use of the concepts may lead to many misunderstandings, and even serious errors.…”

Achieving social well-being in problem areas requires social and economic activation, which is made possible by a change in the attitudes and behavior of the area’s inhabitants. In this systematic review article, the author points out that in order for current public interventions for people at risk in problem areas to be effective, the use of available research by neurobiologists is required. To this end, the author: (1) made a synthetic characterization of problem areas in the world, with particular emphasis on social challenges; (2) reviewed both the available research written by neuroscientists and their subsequent conclusions, which may contribute to better explanations of the social consequences of transformation; (3) on this basis, the author formulated conclusions and recommendations for decision makers. In addition, a review of available research by neuroscientists will help to understand why efforts so far targeting marginalized social groups have been ineffective or insufficient. Revitalization education is defined as all the processes and interactions that aim to change the attitudes and behaviors of people, in particular children and adolescents, in order to contribute to the integration and inclusion of people at risk of social exclusion, and thus improve their well-being. Revitalization education should be directed at people who are caught up in a negative loop of social patterns. Since their fate is shaped by the influence of parents and teachers, the method used for reconstructing positive life patterns towards prodevelopment skills and competences should also be directed at these groups. The article discusses: social problems of marginalized areas; the impact of neuroscience on economic decision making; and recommendations formulated for educational activities.
