Abstract
The aim of this work is to review the concepts of time in quantum mechanics and general relativity to show their incompatibility. We show that the absolute character of Newtonian time is present in quantum mechanics and also partially in quantum field theories which consider the Minkowski metric as the background spacetime. We discuss the problems which this non-dynamical concept of time causes in general relativity that is characterized by a dynamical spacetime. © 2006 Birkhäuser Verlag Basel/Switzerland.
