Time binding can refer to
- human progress as seen from the perspective of general semantics, an educational discipline created by Alfred Korzybski in the 1930s
In Korzybski's framework time binding is the third level in a progression of bindings. Energy binding is what all life forms do in the process of converting ambient energy for use in their life processes. Space binding is performed by animals and to a much lesser degree by some plants in their various activities. Finally, through language and culture, sapient beings such as humans perform time binding by the transmission of knowledge and abstractions through time which are accreted in cultures.
- time bind, a sociological concept relevant to family and labor, introduced by Arlie Russell Hochschild in the 1990s
