Modern acceleration increasingly replaces spatial coordination with temporal coordination

Evidence

By means of successive waves of acceleration through revolutions in transportation, transmission, and, most recently, transplantation (i.e., increases in speed through the organic fusion of body and machine, of genetic engineering and computer technology) we arrive at the victory of time over space. The space-time dispositif is replaced by a speed-space, the coordination of action increasingly takes place in and through time and less and less through space, and chronopolitics gains in importance relative to geopolitics. — Hartmut Rosa, Social Acceleration, 211

Categorization

• DEFINE: Defines speed-space and chronopolitics, where action coordination shifts from space to time, and introduces ‘transplantation’ as a third wave of acceleration besides transportation and transmission.
