Abstract: Both time and space are constant concerns in the work of Michel Foucault. From his first works to his last, a succession of experiences (madness, man, illness, punishment, sexuality) are coded from these two categories. The present work proposes, on the one hand, a non-exhaustive, but rigorous, route of how time and space configure, in Foucault, this entire set of experiences. On the other hand, it is about showing, with the concept of heterotopias, the differences with other modes of space (such as utopias and dystopias) in order to think about the spatiality and temporality of our days as it operates in virtuality. It concludes with some reflections about the characteristics of virtual space and the relevance of being able to interrogate it as a new type of counterspace or other space in the Foucauldian sense.
