The Territories of Science and Religion
The conflict between science and religion seems indelible, even eternal.Surely two such divergent views of the universe have always been in fierce opposition?Actually, that's not the case, says Peter Harrison: our very concepts of science and religion are relatively recent, emerging only in the past three hundred years, and it is those very categories, rather than their underlying concepts, that constrain our understanding of how the formal study of nature relates to the religious life. In The Territories of Science and Religion, Harrison dismantles what we think we know about the two categories, then puts it all back together again in a provocative, productive new way.By tracing the history of these concepts for the first time in parallel, he illuminates alternative boundaries and little-known relations between them thereby making it possible for us to learn from their true history, and see other possible ways that scientific study and the religious life might relate to, influence, and mutually enrich each other. A tour de force by a distinguished scholar working at the height of his powers, The Territories of Science and Religion promises to forever alter the way we think about these fundamental pillars of human life and experience.

How are feeding territories and foraging territories formed?
Feeding territories and foraging territories are typically formed by animals in order to secure a reliable food source. Animals will establish these territories based on the availability of food resources in a particular area. They may use various methods such as scent marking, vocalizations, or physical displays to communicate and defend their territory from other individuals of the same species. By establishing and defending these territories, animals can reduce competition for food and increase their chances of survival.

How are nutrient territories and consumption territories formed?
Nutrient territories are formed based on the availability of essential nutrients in a particular area, which can be influenced by factors such as soil composition, climate, and vegetation. Consumption territories, on the other hand, are shaped by the dietary preferences and cultural practices of a group of individuals or a community. These territories can evolve over time as a result of changes in food availability, migration patterns, or cultural exchange. Ultimately, both nutrient and consumption territories are influenced by a combination of environmental, social, and cultural factors.

Do tomcat territories intersect?
Yes, tomcat territories can intersect, especially in areas with high population density. When territories overlap, tomcats may engage in aggressive behaviors such as fighting and marking their territory to establish dominance. However, in some cases, tomcats may also share territories peacefully, especially if resources such as food and shelter are abundant. Overall, the extent of territorial overlap among tomcats depends on various factors such as population density, resource availability, and individual tomcat behavior.

Uncharted Territories : Adventures In Learning
Hywel Roberts and Debra Kidd’s Uncharted Territories: Adventures in learning is a book of prompts, provocations and possibilities designed to nourish creativity and generate ideas that will get teachers and pupils excited about learning. In this time of high-stakes testing, growing mental health issues among young people and increasing pressure on teachers to focus on rote repetition and practice papers, we have to step back and ask: “What is the purpose of education?” If you think it is to get children through tests, then this book is probably not for you.If, however, you think it is to develop wisdom in children – the capacity to think, to apply knowledge, to empathise, to weigh up evidence, to consider consequences and to make informed choices – then this book is most definitely for you. Rooted in practice and grounded in research, Uncharted Territories invites a reassessment of what curriculum coverage can look like and provides an abundance of hooks into exploratory learning that place learners – of whatever age – knee-deep in dilemma, so that they are thinking deeply, analytically and imaginatively.These are not knowledge organisers or schemes of work; rather they are inspirational forays into imagined contexts for learning which, as fantastical as they may appear, always have the real world as their destination.Signposted by story starters and inductive questions – not to mention the beautiful illustrations which are sure to fire children’s imaginations – Hywel and Debra’s innovative routes to learning will help teachers stray from the beaten track of the curriculum and instil in learners a sense of purpose as they discover, manipulate and apply knowledge and skills across a range of collaborative, cross-curricular problem-solving contexts. Each chapter focuses on a different place – such as a remote castle or a mysterious cave, where the learning will be applied and challenged – and is packed with starting points and “what ifs …?” to establish rich landscapes for exploration and a wide range of opportunities for discussion and writing.To help map out the territory ahead, Hywel and Debra guide the teacher around the key learning landmarks linked to each context’s overarching concepts and lines of inquiry, and point out the many different curriculum areas to which the explorations naturally lend themselves to.The authors go further by offering transferable ideas which can be adjusted to work with whatever age group, as well as a variety of context-based tasks to enable the teacher to explore how elements of, for example, literacy and/or numeracy could be incorporated in order to save curriculum time. While Uncharted Territories is a rallying call to arms for the imagination, in each of its chapters Hywel and Debra also delve into the why in order to present the teacher with a comprehensive debrief of the learning processes and the theoretical and academic underpinning.Furthermore, the authors provide a helpful listing of drama techniques and relevant books and poems that can be incorporated into the learning journeys, as well as useful advice on how to assess and evidence their outcomes. Designed for use with learners of all ages, from early years to secondary.

Territories : The Claiming of Space
Politics and political relationships underpin the world we live in.From the division of the earth’s surface into separate states to the placement of ‘keep out’ signs, territorial strategies to control geographic space can be used to assert, maintain or resist power and as a force for oppression or liberation.Forms of exclusion can be consolidated and reinforced through territorial practices, yet they can also be resisted through similar means.Territoriality can be seen as the spatial expression of power, with borders dividing those inside from those outside. The extensively revised and updated second edition continues to provide an introduction to theories of territoriality and the outcomes of territorial control and resistance.It explores the construction of territories and the conflicts which often result using a range of examples drawn from various spatial scales and from many different countries.It ranges in coverage from conflicts over national territory (such as Israel/Palestine, Northern Ireland, South Ossetia) to divisions of space based around class, gender and race.While retaining the key elements of the first edition, this new edition covers contemporary debates on nationalism, territorialization, globalization and borders.It updates the factual content to explore the territorial consequences of ‘9/11’, the ‘war on terror’ and the conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan.It also examines migration, refugees, the territorial expansion of the European Union, and territorial divisions in the home and workplace.The book emphasizes the underlying processes associated with territorial strategies and raises important questions relating to place, culture and identity.Key questions emerge concerning geographic space, who is ‘allowed’ to be in particular spaces and who is barred, discouraged or excluded.Written from a geographical perspective, the book is inter-disciplinary, drawing on ideas and material from a range of academic disciplines including, history, political science, sociology, international relations, cultural studies.Each chapter contains boxed case studies, illustrations and guides to further reading.

Are our German territories lost forever?
Our German territories are not lost forever. While they may currently be under the control of others, history has shown that borders and territories can change over time. Through diplomacy, negotiations, or even military action, it is possible for us to regain control of our lost territories in the future. It will require strategic planning and cooperation with allies, but the possibility of reclaiming our German territories is not out of reach.
-
Could Germany reclaim its eastern territories?
It is highly unlikely that Germany could reclaim its eastern territories, as these territories are now part of Poland and Russia. The borders of these countries have been internationally recognized and established for many years, and any attempt by Germany to reclaim these territories would likely be met with strong opposition from the international community. Additionally, the historical and geopolitical complexities of the region make it unlikely for such a territorial claim to be successful. Instead, Germany and its neighboring countries have focused on building peaceful and cooperative relationships in the region.
-
Why didn't Germany regain its old territories?
Germany did not regain its old territories after World War II because the Allies, particularly the Soviet Union, decided to redraw the borders of Europe through various treaties and agreements. The Potsdam Conference in 1945 solidified the division of Germany and the loss of territories to neighboring countries. Additionally, the Allies sought to prevent Germany from regaining its former power and influence by dismantling its military capabilities and imposing strict limitations on its territorial ambitions. The post-war settlement aimed to create a more stable and peaceful Europe by preventing Germany from reasserting its dominance over its neighbors.
