Abstract

Increasingly concepts of space, landscape, place and territory have been used in spatial analysis of society. However, this does not mean that you're having a good understanding of these categories. We believe what we are witnessing, we mainly geographers, much of the time, we advocate that these categories of analysis are part of our responsibility only, which is not true, even though part of our remit to express what is and what these categories are not. We understand that the crux of geography is the answer to a more detailed analysis of social spatiality, and that increasingly depends on knowledge about the meaning of spatial categories. Therefore, we propose in this article reflects on the notions of space, place, landscape and territory in order to contribute to a good analytical understanding of these categories to construct a socio-spatial interpretation.
