description How can the material configuration of space be articulated with social reality? Theories of space endow social relations with a concrete form. Space is thus a resource available to be appropriated by actors engaged in any social transaction. By taking space into account, sociology does not merely engage with physical or social morphology. Space as it is perceived and experienced is both a resource and a mediator: an interstitial space, be it public or private, secondary or primary. Space does not have an automatic effect on social life; this is the mistaken view of “spatialism”. The analysis that follows is based on a matrix with multiple entries, which necessarily includes space. This article pursues the reflection already set out in: L’espace, un objet central de la sociologie. Space, a Fundamental Object for Sociology (Remy, 2015).
