Designated-states endure permanent instability until accepting neoliberal terms.

Evidence

Permanent temporariness entails that such geostrategic sites are states without (self-)sovereignty, always in formation and deformation. They are permanently unsettled so that they can be violently disciplined at any and all moments, their resources destroyed or redirected, their inhabitants always on edge, their cartographic boundaries porous and shifting, their jurisdiction open incessantly to renegotiation. Their temporariness will remain permanent – lasting, continuous – unless and until accepting of the terms of neoliberal indebtedness economically and politically predicated. — David Theo Goldberg, The Threat of Race, 1812
