We have borrowed the notion of a timescape from the sociologist Barbara Adam (1998, 2004, 2008), who defines a timescape as a ‘cluster of temporal features, each implicated in all the others, but not necessarily of equal importance in each instance’ (Adam 2004: 143). Its key elements include time-frames, temporality, timing, tempo, duration, sequence and temporal modalities (past, present, future) (Adam 2008). […] [A]s Adam (2009; 1; emphasis in the original) notes, ‘the “scape” part of the concept acknowledges that we cannot embrace time without simultaneously encompassing space and matter … a timescape’s perspective acknowledges this spatiality, materiality and contextuality but foregrounds the temporal side of the interdependency.’ […] [T]he timescape concept invites a focus on the linkages and interdependencies between different dimensions of the temporal constitution of a political system.
