The aim of this article is to lend plausibility to the sociological concept of space as a relational disposition of beings and goods. Since globalization processes also interfere in people's ways of experiencing space, Sociology has been forced to rethink its conceptualizations. In methodological terms, I juxtapose two contrary positions: materialist theorems that set out from spatial structure, and practice-oriented approaches that set out from action. Citing Anthony Giddens's theory of structuration, I conclude by proposing a synthesis of these two approaches. This allows us to develop a theory of space that neither attributes it with essentialist forces, nor reduces it to a mere sequence of actions.
