geographies of time
type: Concept
broader: social geography
definition: The fast pace of modern life and the complex uncertainties of environmental change have led both human and physical geographers to question their understanding of time. Since the 1960s, there has been a significant shift away from chronological, linear conceptions of time toward understandings that examine it as nonlinear and chaotic, something experienced as dynamic and interconnected with different spaces and places.
