Document Summary
The social organization of space- subway, house in andes, spatial segregation in cities, nation states and cyber space. More like a triple venn diagram- can be part of one but not the other, and. State- consists of a legal entity with a defined population and territory. Society- consists of individuals in ongoing relationships. Culture- consists of what people in a society say and do. Delaney: all we have is time chapter 3. Time is another one of the primary ways that we orient ourselves in the world. Like space, we take time for granted ( pre-given , natural ) Our experience of it is shaped by both our individual position and our cultural understandings. Our notions of time are tied to cosmology (worldview) and have political consequences. Linear view of time is rooted in the judeo-christian worldview. This became the time of all others.
