Scale, as a geopolitical concept, incorporates a range of ideas relevant to governance and tyranny. Issues of core and periphery, large and small populations, majorities and minorities, linear and non-linear temporality and physical size – vast and confined as well as local, national, regional, global and universal spaces – feature across debates on the causes of and potential preventative measures against tyranny. Scale is also interspersed across the other elements of tyranny. For instance, the extent of a bureaucracy and its distance from the individuals it regulates can heighten the potential for it to become tyrannical. This chapter uses scale both as an aspect of tyranny and as an iteration of other tyrannical elements to consider how they and international law interact and what this means for potential remedies to tyranny in the global order.
