Abstract

What is space? Why is there space rather than nothing? Nowadays Physics claims to answer these questions without making any reference to the phenomenal space of the subject, and thus in total rupture with respect to its phenomenological meaning. We defend the idea that this elusion, al­though traditional in natural sciences, condemns in advance any attempt to explain space. And we will show that perceptual space is structured by a con­nection to possibilities. Spatialization is an operation affording us to under­stand the beings by embodying in the structure of the world the opportunities we can rely on.
