TLDR

The focus is on the misalignment between territory and the legal construct encasing the sovereign authority of the state over its territory—territoriality. The aim is to make visible that territory cannot be reduced to either national territory or state territory, and thereby to give the category territory a measure of conceptual autonomy from the nation-state.

Bordering Capabilities versus Borders: Implications for National Borders
TL;DR: In this paper, it is shown that even as national territories remain bounded by traditional geographic borderlines, globalization is causing novel types of "borderings" to multiply; these borderings range from regimes protecting firms' trading rights (even when incompatible with domestic law in signatory countries) to emerging forms of protections for threatened species whose habitats comprise more than one country.

Territory, Territoriality, and the Resolution of Jurisdictional Conflict
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors argue that local legal and institutional frameworks remain relevant in the transition from traditional conflicts models to newer regulatory strategies, and that the process of integrating critical reconceptualizations of territory into jurisdictional theories must account for differences in those frameworks across regimes.
