Territory and Justice conference

Territory and Justice Conference – Dublin 12-13 July 2010

http://eis.bris.ac.uk/~plcdib/territory.html

There has been a real interest in the relation between political theory and territory recently, although what it tends to do is take territory as a relatively straight-forward notion, and then apply debates of justice to it. This was the case in some of the books recently appearing on this topic which I reviewed here. I fear this conference will be similar, though it is surely a good thing that political science and philosophy is thinking about such issues at all.
