According to Zierhofer space can be described as “the scheme of interpretation that is used to ascribe attributes of any kind to entities of any kind” (Zierhofer, 2002, p. 1368). Several other authors such as Klüter, Reichert, Weichhart and Werlen have also argued a case for space as a scheme of interpretation. However unlike them, Zierhofer considers space not to be solely a locational framework because the distinction between the physical (matter) and the non-physical (mind) is conditional. Space should not be seen as an object for an actor, but rather as an instrument for the observer with which he may constitute objects (Zierhofer, 2002).
Zierhofer distinguishes between two orders of space:
- First order space is concerned with the making of distinctions. These can be named, measured, calculated and spoken about.
- Second order space is concerned with time.
