Leisure never ceases to appear as a phenomenon, concept and/or experience that permanently raises debates, encounters and disagreements of different perspectives, radical discussions and stories that make it captivating. In Uruguay, the concept has for many years had a negative vision as far as it was positioned as the opposite of productive, healthy and permitted. Nowadays leisure can be understood in different ways. We usually identify it with the differentiated actions of work and characterized by non-obligatory, enjoyment and fun. Leisure experiences relate both to one’s personal experience and to the social environment in which one lives. In this article we briefly try to make a journey through the fundamental conceptions developed in the Greek and Roman civilizations, to reach modern conceptions that today supports leisure as a vital aspect of the process of development of all human beings.
