deterritorialization

Deterritorialization refers to the process by which cultural, social, or political elements move away from their original physical or geographical context and become detached from specific locations. This can happen through globalization, migration, or technological advancements that allow ideas, practices, or identities to spread beyond their traditional boundaries. Essentially, deterritorialization dissolves the connection between a concept or group's origins and its current, often more widespread, expression, leading to a more fluid and dynamic interchange across different regions and communities.
