timeSpace

Abstract

The social sciences and humanities have recently taken a ‘spatial turn’, with workers drawing upon a range of geographical concepts and metaphors to explore an increasingly complex and differentiated social world. Elsewhere, interest has grown in the role that differing conceptualisations of time play in shaping our understandings of the world. TimeSpace is the first book to bring these interests together. Rather than thinking in terms of either time or space, it argues that our accounts of the social world must draw instead upon the more complex notion of TimeSpace.
