Abstract
While struggling to map the ‘post-modern condition’, social theorists have increasingly discovered space, not as an innocent background, but as ‘an active constituent component of hegemonic power — the medium and the message of domination and subordination’.1 Social and cultural life is now shaped, it is argued, by the logic of spatial organisation rather than time and to the fluidity of spatial is contrasted identities entailed in this process is contrasted the fixity of ‘pre-modern’ identities, typically founded on religion.2
