The shrivelled USA: representing time–space in the context of metropolitanization and the development of high-speed transport

Abstract

On the one hand the present globalisation process has only been made possible through a reduction in time–distances allowed by high-speed transport, and particularly through the development of air transport. On the other hand the metropolitanization process seen as the urban counterpart of globalisation is deeply associated with the development of air transport.
