In an era where time is increasingly experienced as pressure, scarcity, or speed, Antigoni Mouchtouri reexamines temporality as a fundamental element of social behavior and individual social crisis.

She places time at the center of an interdisciplinary investigation that intertwines sociology with social philosophy. The book addresses key questions we face today, such as: How does time influence the social construction of the individual, and how does it affect their socialization process?

How has the concept of temporality been recorded in sociological thought? In what ways does the acceleration of time shape the modern person, and how is this rapidly speeding-up new social reality expressed in workplaces?

The book proposes an original way of understanding time as a factor that profoundly shapes the social individual and their social crisis. It challenges the reader to reconsider the concept of temporality in both personal and social life.
