Mattias Kärrholm, Jean Soumagne, José Fernandes, Pedro Chamusca, Teresa Barata Salgueiro. Time-space complexity and the opening hours of commerce:a study of four European cities. Revista de Geografia e Ordinamento do Territorio, 2017, 12, pp.153-177. ⟨10.17127/got/2017.12.007⟩. ⟨hal-04980621⟩

The aim of this article is to develop the concept of time-space complexity as a way of discussing how territorial time-space production affects urban life and use. The discussion is based on a comparative study of opening-hours in four centrally located European retail areas: Angers, Lisbon, Malmö and Porto. Following a comparative study of these areas, we discuss tendencies of temporal and spatial homogenization, the production of ever-more distinctives spaces, and also initiate a discussion on the trend of "city à la carte".
