Space in all its aspects is a central concern of planning research. The common sense view of space - determined by height, length and breadth - is giving way to a richer concept . Physical space seems to be merely one aspect of the multi-dimensional framework within which men and women carry out their daily activities. It is becoming possible to visualize social and economic spaces, where distances are measured in unfamiliar terms that have little to do with feet and inches. One begins to sense, very dimly, how one kind of space is warped and transformed as it moves through time - or interacts with another kind of space. My first contact with these ideas occurred during a regional study in the Department of Urban and Regional Planning at U.C.T. The problems of analyzing these spaces and describing the structural relationships and interactions between them, prompted me to continue the work of that project in the form of a thesis.
