ABSTRACT
This chapter explores the research and analysis of Critical Legal Geography together with the work of other geographers and philosophers of space in order to gather a collection of critical tools necessary to disassemble the monolithic concept of community used in censorship law. The censorship of Internet media provides a further challenge to that monolith as the multiple and discontinuous spaces of cyberspace sit uneasily with law's limited spatial concepts such as jurisdiction. The chapter engages with the work of Henri Lefebvre in order to suggest ways of conceptualizing power and regulation beyond the simple causal models of positivist law. The position of indigenous persons and communities before the law, opposing legal claims of universalism, chart the uneven spread of law across human geography. The isolation of resources as property demonstrates the imposition of legal maps' of proprietorship over the experience of environmental space.
