Timespace undermines the old certainties of time and space by arguing that these dimensions do not exist singly, but only as a hybrid process term. The issue of space has perhaps been over-emphasised and it is essential that processes of everyday existence, such as globalisation and environmental issues and also notions such as gender, race and ethnicity, are looked at with a balanced time-space analysis.
The social and cultural consequences of this move are traced through a series of studies which deploy different perspectives - structural, phenomenological and even Buddhist - in order to make things meet up. The contributors provide an overview of the history of time and introduce the concepts of time and space together, across a range of disciplines. The themes discussed are of importance for cultural geography, sociology, anthropology, cultural and media studies, and psychology.
Industry Reviews
..."the emphasis on social practice through the volume is consistent...the contribution by Wolch and DeVerteuil adds considerable strength to the volume. the conceptual dynamism that energizes the entire volume is potent and original, and TimeSpace thereby makes an important and timely contribution to human geography- Matthew Kurtz, Department of Geography, University of Kentucky, Lexington, KY."
