AB - The goal of this paper is to show that as it comes from modern times to contemporary years, the focus of spatial theory tends to shift from the concept of space to the concept of place. First, Descartes' vortex theory is the product of the intention to thoroughly geometrize the physics that deals with the motion of bodies. Second, Newton's absolute space, which criticizes Cartesian's vortex as an occult quality, shares with Descartes the intention to geometrize the motion of bodies. Third, the humanistic geography of Yi-Fu Tuan and Relph suggests through the concept of “topophilia” and “placelessness” the place that combines space and human significance as the main concept of spatial theory, but the definition of the place concept is not clear yet. Fourth, for a clearer definition of the place concept, we need to look at the relationship between place and power, and Massey’s concept of gendered place provides a clue.
