Abstract

The concept of territory, a politicized space, is not really explored in International Relations, even though territory is where International Relations happen physically. This article explores the development of the concept of territory in International Relations. By seeing the development of the concept of territory in International Relations, I could see the main arguments regarding territory. For example, I could understand the argument behind the jargon of “borderless world” or “return of geography”. In order to fully explain the development of the concept of territory in International Relations, I divide my research into five parts. First, I would describe the beginning of territory itself; how a neutral geographical space turned into political geographical space. Second, I would talk about the implication of politicization of the geographical space itself, geopolitics. Third, I would describe the critics of the concept of territory and also geopolitics. This will be joined by the fourth part about the respond the critics of the concept of territory and geopolitics. Lastly, I would talk about the non-territorial political community as alternative to traditional territorial-based state. This article then concludes that the definition of territory itself needs to be broadened, as non-spatial space is now a territory, such as the Great Firewall of China. Ultimately, I hope to show the current discussion of territory in international relations study and what could be discussed more in this rarely talked concept in international relations.
领土概念在国际关系中的发展
领土的概念,一个政治化的空间,并没有真正探讨国际关系,尽管领土是国际关系发生的物理场所。本文探讨了国际关系中领土概念的发展。通过观察国际关系中领土概念的发展,我可以看到关于领土的主要争论。例如,我可以理解“无国界世界”或“地理回归”这些术语背后的争论。为了充分说明领土概念在国际关系中的发展,我将我的研究分为五个部分。首先,我将描述领土本身的起源;中性地理空间如何转变为政治地理空间。第二,我想谈谈地理空间本身政治化的含义,地缘政治。第三,我想谈谈对领土概念和地缘政治的批评。第四部分是对领土概念和地缘政治批判的回应。最后,我想谈谈作为传统的以领土为基础的国家的替代方案的非领土政治共同体。这篇文章的结论是领土本身的定义需要拓宽,因为非空间空间现在是一个领土,比如中国的防火长城。最后,我希望展示目前国际关系研究中关于领土的讨论,以及在这个国际关系中很少被讨论的概念中可以讨论的更多。
