Abstract
This paper examines the principle of intangibility of colonial borders and its implications for state territory in Africa. The author, Abdelmoughit Benmessaoud, argues that despite globalization, technological progress, and the trend toward territorial enlargement in Europe, the question of borders and their fixity remains highly relevant in the African context. The study emphasizes that borders and state sovereignty, paradoxically, still have a future in Africa. The research is significant because intangibility touches on a vital aspect of state existence. The author suggests that a new approach to interpreting intangibility will be crucial for the future evolution of African states and the continent as a whole.
