Front region

A front region is not so much an actual space as it is more a social mode of acting. The front space equals the area of social action in which we perform, as where a back region equals the social area of recovering. One finds himself in a front space if he can be accounted for his actions, meaning that he is under social constraints.


Meaning and use of the terms

The term front region is introduced by Goffen and used by Giddens.
