Summary Unsustainable hunting threatens biodiversity in the tropics through removal of key seed-dispersing frugivorous primates. Traditionally, Amazon Basin was managed hunter territoriality, with threat social sanctions for overexploitation. We examined territoriality and differential prey selection as alternative hypotheses to central-place foraging. Territoriality occurred beyond common grou...

Behavioural interactions and habitat use by larvae of the giant damselfly, Megaloprepus coerulatus, were studied in Panama. These larvae live in water-filled holes in fallen and living trees. Despite potential advantages for larval territoriality in this species, M. coerulatus did not exhibit exclusive use of resources, probably because their prey were not spatially clumped. Both well-fed and s...

This paper explores the co-existence of relational and territorial spaces – soft spaces through the experiences of EU integration and territorialisation. First, we seek a better understanding of EU integration through an engagement with the literature and research on soft spaces. We propose that EU integration is best understood as involving an interplay between territorial and relational under...

The violence and de/reterritorializing strategies used by armed groups in Colombia disproportionally affect indigenous peoples, especially indigenous women, whose ethnogender roles, forms of territoriality, agency, and autonomy are being altered. Conflict and new forms of territoriality restrict the satisfaction of ethno-gender-based material needs and interests, with negative impacts on women’...

1. introduction seas and oceans comprise over 70 percent of the planet earth always taken into attention in the history. however, the most important official and legal actions to regularize a number of claims made by coastal countries regarding the demand of the territorial and marine control and exclusive ownership date the 20th century. the first conference on marine international law was hel...

This chapter discusses empirical and theoretical investigations of the practice of tabletop territoriality in order to understand how to exploit such social interaction practices that people have developed over years of collaborating in traditional tabletop environments in the design of digital tabletops. These investigations reveal that collaborators at traditional tabletop workspaces use thre...
