Petre Botezatu: complementaritate şi eterogenitate între spaţiu şi timp
Petre Botezatu: Complementarity and heterogeneity between space and time

Summary/Abstract: Petre Botezatu considered that to acknowledge the existence of space–time notions is fundamental in order to establish the theoretical and experimental differences between macrophysics and microphysics. Also, he understood that, unlike the classical physical theories for which the space–time location was a criterion of the reality under study, quantum theory leads to the conclusion that the state of a physical system can not be entirely determined and most of all is not framed by space–time relations. After approximately 40 years, Petre Botezatu considered that the spatialization of time is an idealization process useful for designing new cosmological models, but philosophically it invalidates the specificity of time. Therefore, the Romanian philosopher argued that time has different characteristics as compared to space.
