02 Pubblicazione su volume
The work analyses the conceptual categories of time and space in the socio-economic sciences for the understanding of the change of the social complex systems. After describing the methodological dispute of the late nineteenth century -the Methodenstreit – the paper enlightens the seminal works by Braudel and Wallerstein to move beyond that dispute. In particular, the paper, moving from the World-system perspective, focuses on the new conceptual category of TimeSpace and underlines its relevance in the analysis of the change of social complex systems.
