Aggressors may introduce discriminatory norms at the legislative level that restrict the basic rights of the Indigenous people compared with representatives of the metropole. This technique is used for the institutional consolidation of control. Creating artificial barriers in access to education, government positions, property ownership, or freedom of movement (including the creation of zones of artificial settlement) allows the colonizer to marginalize the local population and fix its subordinate status in the social hierarchy being constructed.
