DORN, Felix M.  y  HAFNER, Robert. Territory, territoriality and territorialization in global production networks. Poblac. soc. [online]. 2023, vol.30, n.1, pp.40-61. ISSN 0328-3445.  http://dx.doi.org/https://doi.org/10.19137/pys-2023-300102.

Global production networks (GPN) provide a powerful multi-scalar approach for analyzing the organization of production, but lack the means for conceptualizing social-ecological issues. Territory and territoriality underscore the epistemological character of socio-environmental problems. Territoriality is an underdeveloped conceptual resource for analyzing a GPN’s territorial configuration. Discussing different contextual conceptions of territory, territoriality and territorialization (e.g. in the Anglophone, Francophone and Latin American debate), we propose an analytical framework to enable a more structured operationalization in GPN research. As a result, we introduce the five P of territoriality – pluralistic, polysemic, process, power relations and physical space.
