Physical space and the process of education: editorial

Tomšič Čerkez, Beatriz (author), Zupančič, Domen (author)

The main characteristic of the present issue is its distinct interdisciplinary focus. Interdisciplinary work requires openness and dialogue regarding concept definitions, and if some concepts are used interchangeably over time redundant concepts lose territory. One could argue that the concept of space is vague, and encourage the use of more precise words like »dwelling«, »landscape«, »city«, or »neighbourhood«. However, there seems to be a need for a common term for the physical environment in relation to the social, psychological and cultural meanings attached to it. It might be more difficult to see common features in research on different kinds of environments if an umbrella term has not been identified. »Space« is a term that is difficult to replace (Hauge, 2007).
