Abstract

© L p i Unfortunately, the original version of this article [1] contained errors. The author has made several edits to be included in the text as shown below. Section: ‘Introduction’, middle of paragraph 5: Drop ‘additional’ in ‘additional case work’ Section: ‘Territory, nature, people, state’, second sentence paragraph 6: Change ‘Indeed, state creation itself...’ to ‘State creation in turn...’ Section: ‘State policy, turtle conservation and marine fishing’, last sentence of paragraph 3: Drop ‘usage’ in ‘popular usage meaning of a mechanized boat’ so that is reads as ‘popular meaning of a mechanized boat’ Section: ‘The Indian state, refugees and the 2005 controversy’, last sentence of paragraph 4: Drop ‘had’ ‘The Act had was partly meant to prevent....’ So that it reads as ‘The Act was partly meant to prevent...’ The additional files (1 and 2) currently placed at the bottom of the text, need to be embedded in the text and function as figures. Additional File 1 should be Figure 1 and be placed at the end of the 5 paragraph of the Introduction. This also means that “(additional file 1)” at the end of the last sentence of paragraph 5 needs to be deleted. Additional File 2 should be Figure 2 and be placed at the end of the 7 paragraph of the section entitled, “State policy, turtle conservation and marine fishing”. This also means that “(additional file 2)” at the end of the last sentence of paragraph 7 needs to be deleted. There are further changes to the Bibliography.

The following is an unpublished reference that needs to be changed in the bibliography. Chhotray, Vasudha. 2016.

Summary

Introduction

Marine spatial planning (MSP) has a history. In some areas, a sequence of plans has been produced through an ongoing MSP process (Blau and Green 2015), inviting exploration of the changes that have taken place during these processes, especially the ways in which the planning response to perceived issues may have developed. A study of this kind could be set in the well-established framework of adaptive management This is the argument that an MSP cycle should culminate in a review of the process undertaken, supported by monitoring, leading to an evaluation of the effectiveness of the plan, with lessons learned and changes proposed for the iteration of plan-making (Day 2008; Douvere and Ehler 2011; Ehler 2014). Their perspective offers an ontological fusion between process and object, or form, supporting an expanded understanding of the spatial, as suggested above This is despite the physical connotations of the metaphors used (striated and smooth), as there is as much emphasis on inner powers as on outward shape, and these are inextricably bound together, and embody movement and progression. I reflect further on the results of this exploration and its value to our wider understanding of how MSP processes are evolving, and what it may have to offer to understanding of the striated-smooth model
