The aim of this Chapter is to develop a substantive relational framework for a better understanding of relationships between people and places. To that purpose time geographical concepts will be integrated with insights from practice theory, which is an umbrella term for theories that see practices at the core of social relations and emphasize their plurality and heterogeneity rather than being one homogeneous singular praxis. In this sense practice theory is closely related to philosophical pragmatism that focuses on practical outcomes of knowledge and behavior (Gimmler 2013). Both theory strands will be used to integrate elements from philosophy of emotions and from philosophical anthropology in this chapter in order to frame a better understanding of human under mobilities conditions.
