Concepts of Territoriality, Privacy, and Personal Space Territories are zones which are marked and protected by their proprietors and regularly utilized for life-supporting exercises (Territoriality, 2004). The most widely recognized illustration of a man 's territory would be his or her home in light of the fact that one has a tendency to customize and protect what is theirs. People distinguish themselves with their region and any risk to that domain feels like a danger to them (Territoriality, 2004).

    The issue of privacy has been one dating back to the beginning of society. In order to protect it we have erected walls around us and called them homes, fences and called them territories, borders and called them countries. As the modern day arrived, society innovated to the point that ownership and privacy are no longer clear. Science has developed at a rate where morals and laws cannot keep up, more specifically, in the medical department. Such a problem is detailed in Rebecca Skloot’s book The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks.

    This often creates a false sense of security which prohibits further advancement in society. Vonnegut warns humans of overpopulation and to not be fooled by deception: “Emerald and Lou, coming in from the balcony, where they had been seeking that 2185 A.D. rarity--privacy--were obliged to take seats in the back row, behind Lou's father and mother, brother and sister-in-law, son and daughter-in-law, grandson and wife, granddaughter and husband, great-grandson and wife, nephew and wife, grandnephew and wife, great-grandniece and husband, great-grandnephew and wife--and, of course, Gramps, who was in front of everybody” (Vonnegut 1). When privacy is a rarity, one can infer that the earth has become overpopulated and natural resources are practically impossible to find. The new technology, anti-gerasone, has prohibited people from dying, causing the Earth to become overcrowded; in turn, limiting advancement due to a lack of space and the inability to work undisturbed. In contrast to the outside world, places that we consider to be substandard, appear superior.

    The average man, though he longs for freedom, feels the need to be safe. People naturally wish to have the freedom to act on things, believe in things or say things, but, they want themselves and their families to be safe while doing so. Alongside the need for safety, man has a need for privacy. People tend to react negatively to others digging into their personal lives, creating a want for their own privacy in life. This subconscious need for safety and privacy has always trumped man’s desire for absolute freedom.

    Marlon Brando, a world renowned actor, once said, “Privacy is not something that I 'm merely entitled to, it is an absolute prerequisite” (Brando). Brando is saying privacy should not be given, but should be an automatic privilege. In “Blues Ain’t No Mockin Bird” by Toni Cade Bambara, Granny, the protagonist, Granddaddy, and the rest of their family find their privacy being breached by people taking pictures of them, without their consent, for the food stamp program. They believe that this is unjust and that they deserve privacy. In “Blues Ain’t No Mockin Bird,” Bambara asserts that all people have a right to their privacy no matter their race or social class, through the use of metaphor and symbolism.

    Borders are not simply a physical infrastructure, they set a reputation to those on the outside and mold the identity for those within the boundaries. Samples of borders are, but not limited to, international borders, state boundaries, police precincts, neighborhoods, and private properties. It can be better understood how they affect people’s lives in Reece Jones’s text, Violent Borders; more specifically in chapter 5, “Maps, Hedges, and Fences: Enclosing the Commons and Bounding the Seas”. This is where Jones analyzes the past of borders and argues how people’s possessiveness of territory have not changed, but instead, evolved into a system with multiple aspects. The formation of the enclosure movement and the rise of Westphalian sovereignty,

    Nowadays, “privacy” is becoming a popular conversation topic. Many people believe that if they do not do anything wrong in the face of technology and security, then they have nothing to hide. Professor Daniel J. Solove of George Washington University Law School, an internationally known expert in privacy law, wrote the article Why Privacy Matters Even if You Have ‘Nothing to Hide’, published in The Chronicle of Higher Education in May of 2011. Solove explains what privacy is and the value of privacy, and he insists that the ‘nothing to hide’ argument is wrong in this article. In the article, “Why Privacy Matters Even if You Have ‘Nothing to Hide’”, Daniel J. Solove uses ethos, pathos, and logos effectively by using strong sources, using

The argument that Brandeis makes against technological surveillance of citizens follows a certain line of logic: “property” encompasses both physical and intangible possessions, in the same way that other protections are not physical but real all the same, such as protection from assault or nuisance6. It is unlikely that Justice Brandeis could envision a world entirely reliant on an intangible network of information such as the Internet, but his ideas can still be used today to protect Americans’ privacy in the digital

However, in nature, everything is sprawled out, completely naked and for everyone to see. One deserves to be alone, to be free, to be alone in nature, not to be completely consumed by urbanization. People, with all sorts of options in urban areas, tend to not realize the unkemptness of the places they call home. As a result, they need to consider the elegant value of nature and how clean it naturally is.

But what defines an urban area and what makes it so attractive? In my opinion, urban areas are places that consist of a variety of land uses and buildings, where services and amenities are easily accessible to the general public, and includes an established multimodal transportation network. Also, it should be a place where people can play, learn, work, and grow in a safe and collaborative manner.
