Socio-environmental crisis is changing how we think about the spatiality of sovereignty claims. It is also undermining the plausibility of territorial accounts premised on titles, ownership, and jurisdiction. The paper’s first aim is to conceptually codify these dynamic challenges to territorial theorisation. The second is to present an account of planetary citizenship that can withstand the territorial dynamism of socio-ecological crisis. This model takes cosmopolitan solidarity with the world’s human population and extends it to the natural world and it endorses a latent set of attachments that citizens have towards the diffuse biophysical systems that make life on earth liveable.
