Abstract

This paper deals with understanding, firstly, how economic space-time works as
a structuring paradigm based on the suppression of feminine time with the
inevitable knock-on effects on social or domestic (procreative) life. Because
economic space, as Lefebvre believes, is seductive, it “unleashes desire” by
claiming all time for itself; time must now be reproduced in such a way that it can
open outwards to social dimensions rather than closing them off.
