本文探讨了“领土完整”一词的使用，该术语具有两个相互关联且通常兼容的含义。首先，各国不应寻求推动其他国家的边界变化或分裂主义运动，或试图以武力夺取领土。第二个含义是标准观念，即在其边界内、在其领土内，国家是主权国家。近年来，这两个含义中的第二个含义受到越来越大的压力，部分原因是出于“人道主义”原因的国际干预，自 2001 年 9 月 11 日以来更是如此。然而，另一个含义却被更加明确地强调，通常是在第二个含义受到挑战的同时和地点。本文考虑了各种历史和当代的例子，并表明领土完整的两种含义日益紧张。
This paper examines the use of the term ‘territorial integrity’, a term with two interlinked and usually compatible meanings. The first is that states should not seek to promote border changes or secessionist movements within other states, or attempt to seize territory by force. The second meaning is the standard idea that within its own borders, within its territory, a state is sovereign. The second of these two meanings has come under increased pressure in recent years, in part in relation to international intervention for ‘humanitarian’ reasons, and even more so since September 11 2001. And yet the other meaning is being stressed even more explicitly, often at the same time and in the same places that the second meaning is being challenged. This paper considers various historical and contemporary examples, and suggests that the two meanings of territorial integrity are increasingly in tension.
