The talk introduces the concept of "territorialized genocide" to describe a mode of elimination enacted through the production, fragmentation, regulation, and destruction of space. Drawing on critical geography, settler colonial studies, urban theory, and Black geographies, the lecture theorizes Gaza as a volumetric battlefield structured across three interconnected spatial registers: the militarized sky, the fragmented urban surface, and the politicized underground.
