Abstract
I want to conclude this study by exploring some new possibilities for research on territoriality, migration and the evolution of the international system. I specifically want to argue in favour of work that combines the historical knowledge I have sought to systematize in this book with case material drawn from a significantly expanded geographical trove. This is a significant step beyond the path I have taken in this book. The current study is firmly grounded in a theoretical tradition and debate that posits Europe as the origin and instigator of territorial ideas and change. Even when I followed the British Empire to the Indian subcontinent, I was mostly interested in discussing how Europeans made decisions about territorial expansion and how these Europeans reflected on their home-grown territorial norms.
