Sammanfattning

This chapter explores the increasing use of mathematical metaphors - particularly geometry and topology - in social science research about space, place and location. It looks at the history of how these terms have been used in mathematics and how the concepts of geometry and topology have been deployed in governance in order to look more closely at how these ideas have affected the materiality of how people live in their three dimensional world.
