This conceptualization identifies globalization as deterritorialization or as I would prefer, the growth of 'supraterritorial' relations between people. In this usage,'globalization' refers to a far-reaching change in the nature of social space. The proliferation and spread of supraterritorial or what we can alternatively term 'transworld' or 'transborder' connections brings an end to what could be called 'territorialism' that is a situation where social geography is entirely territorial. Although as already stressed territory still matters very much in our globalizing world it no longer constitutes the whole of our geography.
