Cara Nine’s Global Justice and Territory is reviewed at NDPR. This book is one of a few recent books by political philosophers looking at questions around territory. After neglect, this is certainly a good thing. However, as I’ve noted before, these debates often proceed without much reference to what political geographers have written about the subject – they take territory itself to be relatively unproblematic, and work through the complexities of particular instances in detail. In other words there are a series of complicated debates about justice, rights, etc. as they pertain to territory – territory becomes something like another object over which there are questions of ownership, use, resources, distribution etc. As I said in the review of earlier books on this topic, the response should not be that political geographers ignore this work, but rather to engage with it, and perhaps in so doing show how their work contributes to these debates.
