Metáforas del tiempo en la vida cotidiana: Una aproximación sociológica

Abstract

The article deals with time social images reconstruction provided by a qualitative research made up in Madrid (Spain). Four social time metaphors are analyzed: a. time as a social action option, b. time as an external environment to which social action should be adapted; c. time as part of the body or life in itself; d. time as a double horizon (past/future) for social action purposes.
