This book is published as a supplement to the catalogue "Territories.
Islands, Camps and Other States of Utopia" (Verlag der Buchhand-lung Walther König), Cologne and KW berlin, 2003 accompanying the exhibition "Territories".

Territories brings together architects and artists in an exhibition about politics, architecture and geography. As the title of the exhibition implies, a number of projects are presented dealing with the occupation, control and defence of space. The exhibition speaks less about the cultural meaning of land use, housing and cultivation, but rather explores the strategic use of architecture and planning in times of crisis and conflict, bearing witness to the increasing fragmentation and militarization of the global political landscape.
