In this research proposal, we propose to conduct scientific research on the problems of the contemporary temporal order. More and more people experience time pressure and a lag of time because of the increasing labour force participation of women and because of flexible working hours. These feelings are the symptoms of the contemporary temporal order. We want to investigate these feelings on the basis of recent time-budget studies:
- How can we define feelings of time pressure and lag of time?
- What groups in our society handle most of the feelings of time pressure in which inequalities do exist?
- What are the positive and negative qualities of solutions for this problem?
