Time geography

Time-geography is a mode of thinking that helps in the understanding of change in society, the wider context and ecological consequences of human actions.

This book presents its assumptions, concepts and methods, and example applications.

The intellectual path of the Swedish geographer Torsten Hägerstrand is a key foundation for this book.

His research contributions are shown in the context of the urbanisation of Sweden, involvement in the emerging planning sector and empirical studies on Swedish emigration.
