The effect of space on actions, interactions, entities, and theories. ‘Spatiality is a social construct, not an exogenously given, absolute coordinate system…but a product of the political economic system’ (Sheppard (2004) Antipode, 36, 3). ‘Spatiality is constitutive of the particular ways in which the different modalities of power take effect. The two major dimensions of spatiality are reach and intensity’ (Clegg (2006) Area 38, 1). ‘From the perspective of spatiality, space and society do not gaze at each other but rather are mutually embedded’ (Ettlinger and Bosco (2004) Antipode 36, 2). The term is also used as a synonym for distribution, or spatial expression.
