In Rhythmanalysis, Henri Lefebvre put forward his ideas on the
relationship between time and space, particularly how rhythms
characterize space. Here, leading geographers advance and expand on
Lefebvre's theories, examining how they intersect with current
theoretical and political concerns within the social sciences. In
terms of geography, rhythmanalysis highlights tensions between
repetition and innovation, between the need for consistency and the
need for disruption. These tensions reveal the ways in which social
time is managed to ensure a measure of stability through the
instantiation of temporal norms, whilst at the same time showing
how this is often challenged. In looking at the rhythms of
geographies, and drawing upon a wide range of geographical
contexts, this book explores the ordering of different rhythms
according to four main themes: rhythms of nature, rhythms of
everyday life, rhythms of mobility, and the official and routine
rhythms which superimpose themselves on the multiple rhythms of the
body.
