Analysis of the human fetal pallium (7.5–15 PCW) shows distinct spatiotemporal trajectories for the archicortex, mesocortex, and neocortex, with delayed but accelerated differentiation in allocortical regions.

Drawing from hegemonic stability theory and new institutional economics, we argue that the power's collapsing global networks ...
