Sumario:A special section on the theorization of time and space. Topics discussed include rewriting time and space in postapartheid poetry and property in South Africa; Douglas Coupland's Brentwood—an affluent Los Angeles suburb—as an experiment with time and space; a reflection on the nature of resource economies and the single-industry towns that form their backbone in relation to the work of Canadian economic historian, Harold Innis; postindustrial narratives of primary commodity production; Asian spies, American cars, and speculations on the space–time of value; the Bisa of Burkina Faso as an anthropological case study on the relation of space, language, and social order; and the reconstitution of notions of space in architectural theory and practice.
